Hi,
have you tried printing them in the Flash console to see if they show up correctly?

What are those by the way? User names?

Thanks
Lapo

Hi
make sure the .xml files are saved in UTF-8 mode, otherwise hebrew characters will not show correctly.

Hope it helps
Lapo

Errors found in configuration files.
Unable to start the server.


Shutting down server...




when I change the format back to ANSI the server doesn't give me errors and works perfectly.
any fixes?
in case you need the config.xml in order to fix the problem and give it back to me here is a link:

in case you need to change the language in f2h there is a globe icon up top hover over it and click the appropriate language

Hi,
the file you have uploaded is saved in "UTF-8 with BOM". This is what causes the error.

Try and save the file as just UTF-8, or UTF-8 no BOM, it will fix the problem.

for people who have this problem download notepad++ open it and In the top menu select Encoding > Convert to UTF-8
press ctrl+s or click floppy drive icon and run the server again.

I used regular notepad so it didn't work
regular notepad means it came with windows.

Yes, Notepad++ is a good all-purpose editor for Windows.
If you're on Mac you can download TextWrangler.
