Try encoding your file name with

yourFilename = ISO9075.encode(yourFilename);‍

Thanks.
But when i am encoding the file name as suggested by you its still not working.
It creates a 0 KB file with name as ????_x0020_????.pdf.
This is the code i am using

            RepositoryServiceSoapBindingStub repositoryService = WebServiceFactory.getRepositoryService();


            ParentReference parentReference = new ParentReference(getStoreRef(), null, "/app:company_home/cm:hammid_x0020_hani", Constants.ASSOC_CONTAINS, Constants.ASSOC_CONTAINS);
            NamedValue[] properties = new NamedValue[]{Utils.createNamedValue(Constants.PROP_NAME, ISO9075.encode(documentVO.getDocFileName()))};
            CMLCreate create = new CMLCreate("id1", parentReference, null, null, null, Constants.TYPE_CONTENT, properties);
            CMLAddAspect addAspect = new CMLAddAspect(Constants.ASPECT_VERSIONABLE, null, null, "id1");
            CML cml = new CML();
            cml.setCreate(new CMLCreate[]{create});
            cml.setAddAspect(new CMLAddAspect[]{addAspect});

            // Execute the update
            UpdateResult[] updateResults = repositoryService.update(cml);

            Reference docRef = updateResults[0].getDestination();

Your code is good. For the filename problem you should check to see if your database is set to UTF8, because arabic letters are working fine for me. And to actually upload the document you can use

ContentFormat format = new ContentFormat(mimeType, encoding);
getContentService().write(nodeReference, Constants.PROP_CONTENT, contentInBytes, format);

Thanks for your reply.
I am using the below command in mySQL to set the database charset to utf8
set character_set_database=utf8;
set session character_set_server=utf8;
set global character_set_server=utf8;
set names utf8;

But once i restart the server the charset automatically changes to latin1.
Thats the reason i think alfresco is storing ????? in the file name.
Any idea how to change the MySQL data base charset to utf8

jcustovic

You can edit my.ini file and set:

[mysqld] 
default-character-set=utf8 
‍‍‍‍

There are other options to configure my.ini file so you can find them if you'll need them…

Thanks,
This works fine after changing the MySQL database charset to utf8.
I can upload arabic alnguage documents/titles now.

Thanks for your support.
