Error description
Error Message: java.nio.charset.UnsupportedCharsetException: IBM5026 at java.nio.charset.Charset.forName(Charset.java:546) . Stack Trace: N/A . In Java 5, ibm####, cp####, or #### are accepted as alias name of ibm-#### charset. However, in Java 6 those values are not accepted as alias for some charsets. For example, IBM-5026, IBM-5035, IBM-5050, etc.
Local fix
Use IBM-#### instead of using ibm####, cp####, or ####
Problem summary
Some of the alias name definitions are missing for the charsets which reported the failure.
Problem conclusion
This defect will be fixed in: 6.0.0 SR16 6.0.1 SR8 7.0.0 SR7 7.1.0 SR1 . The JDK has been updated to ensure all charsets have all the supported alias names like cpxxxx, ibmxxxx, ibm-xxxx and xxxx.
