liftsch.cmd java.nio.charset.IllegalCharsetNameException: UTF-8

[jackpark]

at java.nio.charset.Charset.checkName(Unknown Source)

Java version 1.6.0_26-b03
Win 7
First time booting the downloaded framework
Cannot imagine why it's unhappy with a legal name.
Ideas?
Thanks!

[Jack Park]

Update: the issue does not occur on Ubuntu, just my Win7 platform.

Yes, liftsh.cmd (for Windows) is problematic.

I need to get hold of a Windows box to have this fixed.

Just wanted to confirm I have this same issue in Win7 using Powershell
with 2.4-M3. Is there a ticket open for this?

cmd> java -version
java version "1.6.0_26"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_26-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.1-b02, mixed mode)

In case anyone still cares. I dug around and supplied a patch to
hopefully fix this issue. See
