I have a problem with xml file now.

I want to create a web project. In that I created web.xml file. If we put encoding property i.e,

<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?>

its giving Error Status-404

If we put encoding property i.e.,

<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”ISO-8859-1″?>

its giving exact output.

Can you explain me what is the difference between them?

Which is best to execute the servlet error free?

Please send me the answer.

Thanks,
Arif

shaikarif.129,

1) Here is a link which explains the difference between ISO and UTF standards :
http://www.java-forums.org/xml/6066-xml-parse-throws-saxparseexception-encoding-utf-8-insteadof-iso-8859-1-a.html

2) Here are links to understand which one is better :

3) I tried to replicate the issue at my end with a simple web project and both the encoding properties worked fine.

4) Which version of MyEclipse are you working with ? Paste the Build Id here for me from Help > About MyEclipse Enterprise Workbench > Build Id.

5) Clear the contents of the .log file which is located at <workspace dir>/.metadata/.log. Now replicate the issue with encoding property : <?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?> and paste the error logged in the .log file here.
