playframework 2.0 - Force decoding of Play2's play.api.libs.ws.Response to UTF-8 in Scala? -


when fetch content site http://dilbert.com, gives me invalid encoding: utf-8lias. no such encoding of course exists, cannot impact site tells me.

as result of this, play.api.libs.ws.response object throws unsupportedencodingexception:

[error] application - error: java.io.unsupportedencodingexception: utf-8lias

of course if encoding given site faulty, content in utf-8.

can somehow force scala ws response decode response utf-8 anyway?

not solution (hence not marking such), switched scalaj-http library instead, doesn't seem have issues reading http://dilbert.com.

i hope play's http library gets fixed, though.
