MoTD error with unicode

[Fchen48]

I use a motd with unicodes like \u00bb or \n, everything in " quotes, I restart bungeecord every day, but after three or five days it will change from this:

motd: "             \u00bb &4Test&r \u00ab\n              second line"

to this:

motd: |2-
               ? &4Test&r ?
                 second line

I'm using Java 8
and latest BungeeCord version: Build 1088

Are you using OpenJDK or Oracle JRE? (Use java -version command and paste here please)

[Phineas]

And I assume you're ysing this plugin, correct?:

[Fchen48]

java version "1.8.0_60"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_60-b27)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.60-b23, mixed mode)

no I don't use any plugin for motd

file encoding?

[Fchen48]

$ file -bi config.yml
text/plain; charset=us-ascii

This is the working config.yml, if the error appears again (I think it will come in the next days), I will check the corrupted file.

Ok found the error, I restarted BungeeCord five till ten times and nothing happens, so I tried to force creating a minigame server with my own load balancing management, and it happens. I use a plugin called BungeeServerManager https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/bungeeservermanager.7388/
It will create a server entry in bungeeconfig with a consol command. I will contact the author of the plugin if he can fix this issue.

thanks a lot.

Since 1.9 I still receive this error with no plugins, if I will restart the proxy (no plugins installed) and have a normal motd without Unicode, everything looks normal, but if I will add something like \u00bb and restart the blank BungeeCord it will break like the comment above.

Still an issue? Try Utf8 without bom
