Description

ACS 4.1 uses maven-jetty-plugin for developer runing management server.
Currently there is character encoding issue for zh_CN, ja and ru_RU, see this screen shot when I use Simplified Chinese: http://snag.gy/sGCn6.jpg
I tried add utf-8 for page encoding and charset in both jsp file and pom.xml file, but it didn't help.
There is a way to display correct language, for example Simplified Chinese:
1. export LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8
2. mvn -pl :cloud-client-ui jetty:run
3. using native2ascii to convert resource file: native2ascii -encoding UTF-8 messages_zh_CN.properties.back messages_zh_CN.properties

But the converted resource files are not human recognizable.

There is no issue in ACS 4.0.x, since it use ant to run and tomcat as webapp container.
