ZEN V12 - Captive portal displaying latin characters incorrectly as ASCII <only on central DIV>

[grazzianos]

I'm testing the ZEN v12 image, manually migrating some configurations for homologation. When I tested captive portal, a strange behavior occourred: the central DIV was displaying latin chatacters incorrectly, but in other parts of the page, the characters was displayed correctly.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to 'Configuration' > ' Advanced Access Configuration' > Portal Modules;
2. Create a new root module;
3. Create a new 'Message' module;
4. Insert this message in the right field:

<h3>Você não tem permissão para acessar esta rede local!</h3>
<br>
Para obter acesso, clique em continuar e entre com as credenciais autorizadas para autenticação. 
<br><br>
<p><i>Ao validar este método, os registros de sua navegação serão armazenados, podendo ser utilizados como material probatório para eventuais sanções, de acordo com nossa Política de Usabilidade.</i></p>

6. Go to 'Policies and Access Control' > 'Connection Profiles';
7. Edit 'default' profile, setting as 'Root Portal Module' the module created on step 2;
8. Click on preview;
9. See the error.

Expected behavior See the message module correctly displaying Latin characters. Apparently, the system changed the code format of the inserted text to ASCII.

Desktop:

• OS: Windows 10;
• Browser: Chrome;
• Version 106

Additional context I saw a similar closed issue (https://github.com/inverse-inc/packetfence/issues/3952), but in my case, occurred only on central DIV of the captive page. Someone with the same issue? Can someone help me?

I need to implement v12 soon in my office.

Hello @grazzianos,

Thanks ! I'm able to replicate issue.

Issues I noticed:

• Description of a source which contains UTF8 characters is not displayed correctly on captive portal
• Description of a portal module which contains UTF8 characters is not displayed correctly on captive portal
• Display a message which contains UTF8 characters using Message module doesn't work

Important: If I add UTF8 characters inside aup_text.html, they appear correctly.

@jrouzierinverse, I think these issues are related to #7106. Could you look into this ?
