<p>Hello community!<br></p><p>I use Mapserver 7.0.7 in ms4w 3.2.3 package on Win Server 2012 R2.
Now i tried to generate a simple mapfile in utf8 encoding with this
layer:</p>
<pre><code>LAYER
Name "freiflaechen"
DATA "C:\Vektordaten\freiflächen\freiflä_zusammen.shp"
TYPE polygon
STATUS on
CLASS
COLOR 102 185 120
END
END
</code></pre>
<p>Unfortunately it doesn't work because there a some special character
in the path and in the file name. So if i change the encoding of my
mapfile to LATIN1, everything works fine. Also if i remove the special
character from the path and in file name. But i look for a clean
solutuion. I have many files to be shown with mapserver that have
special characters and i want to handle my mapfile in the prescribe utf8
encoding. <br></p><p>Any ideas?</p><p><br></p><p>Best regards</p><p><br></p><p>Evgeni Tcherkasski<br></p>
