Encountering encoding issues on linux box, not Windows
I'm running into an encoding issue that has stumped me for a few weeks and nothing seems to work. I have a website that works fine on my local machine, but when I push the jsp files to a Linux box for review, characters that previously rendered fine are now displaying as funky characters.

For some reason, some characters display just fine, but other characters will not encode properly. All text on the page is being read from java .properties files and output to the page using beans.

I've added a meta tag to the page to set encoding, which did nothing. I also added <%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" pageEncoding="UTF-8"%> but this did nothing on the linux box and actually made the encoding errors appear on my local windows machine.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
