Install failed: character encoding issues

Posted August 29, 201213 yr

Forge doesn't set up character encoding properly, which results in a broken run of install.sh.

The problem can be fixed by adding "-encoding UTF-8" to the compiler arguments in conf/mcp.conf (forge overwrites it during installation)

Please include the fix for the compiler arguments or make all sources use ASCII-7 encoding.

Relevant log output follows:

Java by default uses utf8, which is what all the source is in, it is a java standard everywhere. What did you do to your poor install to not make it the utf8 standard?

I tried following up on that sentiment, and it appears your assumption is actually wrong:

The default character set of the JVM is that of the system it's running on. There's no specific value for this and you shouldn't generally depend on the default encoding being any particular value.

At any rate, I'm using an unmodified sun-jvm straight from my package manager on linux. Among the other top hits on google are mentions that even Mac OS defaults to non-UTF8 encoding, although MacRoman will probably act less violent about non-ASCII characters. Even a default install of a commercial grade tool like Maven will by default complain about character encoding, and I think we just figured out why.

Er, UTF-16, some unicode.

All my source always contains 0-127 ascii with anything else being in files read in from outside, so I have never ran in to an issue.

Should be fixed with latest forge. I force the encoding to UTF 8

Failed loading villager cartographer registered at cartographer - frozen tick

Allocated 10 Gb of ram. Could try again with more but I read using too much can slow things down as well. Going to try another big modpack and see if i can replicate the problem. It seems like this cartographer problem is kind of popular and doesn't have a solid solution yet, but i suspect its some generation mod since it's a crash that happens when specific chunks are being loaded. so i'll still try to lookout for what mod it could be as i add. i'll report back after testing as you suggested for a bit

I have no idea - is enough RAM allocated?
Do other pre-configured modpacks work? Maybe use such a modpack as working base and add new mods one by one
