Spanish and French accents in reports as filters

Support - Assistance technique

Hi devs,

We are not being able to filter the reports by options which contains accents. We just got a “No Values found” message. I have test it with 2.17 and 2.18 (not yet with 2.19). Do you have any plans to allow the use of this characters in the coming future? This is quite important for our Latin and French spaking countries users…

Regards

Jose

Hi Morten,

Yes, sorry, I am talking about Event Reports (see attached image). When we try to filter by ‘5A09 - Inma Yeanet Pérez Gutierrez’ we get a “no values found”. However, the data is there. I am assuming because it contains the accent é.

Hi Jose,

If you’re using Tomcat, you might want to check and be sure that server.xml has the <connection… tag with an attribute of URIEncoding=“UTF-8”. I had some other issues with accented characters and the Web API, and this fixed it.

Cheers,

Jim
