Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server V8.0 and V8.0 * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: On Japanese locale corrupted messages * * appear in native_stdout.log * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** On Japanese platforms scrambled messages appear in native_stdout.log. This is because Japanese, as well as other languages using double byte character set (such as Chinese, Hebrew and others) require a special Java console.encoding setting, yet the check for Japanese is missing.
Problem conclusion
The problem is fixed by adding check for Japanese along with the existing checks for Chinese, Hebrew, and so on. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix packs 8.0.0.5 and 8.5.0.1.
