File Encoding - copyright character read/displayed as "?"

[marlon tan]

Hi,
There are three Tomcat environments that I'm currently working on. I have also listed some of the system properties used.
1. Local machine
- file.encoding=ISO-8859-1
- os.name=Windows XP
- os.version=5.1
2. QA server
- file.encoding=ISO-8859-1
- os.name=Linux
- os.version=2.4.9-e.35
3. Production:
- file.encoding=ISO-8859-1
- os.name=Linux
- os.version=2.4.9-e.38smp
My question is: I was trying to read from a file that contains the copyright character. When I run my web application in environments (1) and (2), the copyright character is properly read/displayed. But when I run the same application in environment (3), the question mark sign is read/displayedinstead of the copyright character.
Can someone please help?
Thank you very much.

Hi,
Is it possible to do this without changing file.encoding property of Tomcat? I've searched the web, and the copyright character is included in the ISO-8859-1 character set.
Thank you very much
