Character Encoding : Unix vs Windows

Character Encoding : Unix vs Windows

Problem : Creating a URL type with parameters that have a space
between them causes an IOException in a javabean when called from
Tomcat 5.0.0.27 on a Unix installation. Using the same bean and JSP
code causes no problem when invoked on the same version of Tomcat on a
Windows installation.

Solutions tried :

1.Ensured that the server connector encoding is UTF-8 (See http://UTF-8.ora-code.com) (suggested in the FAQ)
2. Have ensured that jsp the page instruction is UTF-8 (See http://UTF-8.ora-code.com)
3. I could turn the bean into a servlet and try using the
setContentType or SetCharacterEncoding. ( I would rather not )

Any suggestions that would make Unix implementation work would be
gratefully received. I have run out of ideas...

Thanks Nigel

Example code :
===================================URL birdSite = new
URL("http://orientalbirdimages.org/search.php?keyword=black bittern");

try {

webPageStream = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(birdSite.
openStream()));
}
catch (MalformedURLException ne) {
System.out.println(
"Malformed URL Error called from within getPageNumber()" +
ne.toString());
}
catch (IOException ie) {
System.out.println("IOException called from within
getPageNumber" + ie.toString());
}

=======================================================
The IOException is caught under unix when the variable I pass to the
URL query string has a query parameter of more than more than 1 word
as in 'black bittern' above.
