StatusWill Not Be Addressed

Additional Information

The reason is that the default URI encoding of Tomcat 7 is not correct, please: 1. Open config/server.xml 2. At connector, add URIEncoding="UTF-8" If using the latest version of tomcat (v9), the default downloaded tomcat works well.

Workaround

Remove the accented letter from the file name of the widget's configuration file located in the configs folder, and change the corresponding URI in the config.json file.
