[Zope] zope/pone dies without traceback:cant uplaod data with umlauts anymore

[robert rottermann]

Hi there,

I want to upload data trough a form into a database.
This used to work fine for a year or so.

Now when ever there are non ascii characters in the text to upload zope 
dies without any traceback but the following:

There is no entry in the error log, neither in plone nor in one of 
zope's log files.
I tried to intercept the data, but it looks as if the error happens 
before I have a chance to see it.

I am grateful for any help

Robert
