Symptoms


It is not possible to find German pages or documents for keywords including umlauts like ä, ö, and ü if the user uses a browser where the language is set to English.

Using other umlauts like the German “ß” or the Scandinavian “ø” or “å”, the issue is not reproduced.

e.g. Running a SES search for "Müller" (German name)
