Can you include the details of the error (click "Show Details" at the top).

Likely this is caused by the database tables not having the correct encoding.

That pop up box "Server Error Details" is the result of clicking on "Show Details".

Are you the admin of the server? Can you get the reviewboard log file?

No I'm not, and I don't have access to the log files. :(

Can you contact them and get them involved with this bug report? Without the logs, we can't help any further.

It's ok, it's not a big issue. If it's not reproducible on your end it's likely an environmental issue. We don't normally use Unicode in our code reviews anyway, I had set the title in Chinese as a joke. :P

OK, I'll close this out. Most databases don't create utf-8 tables by default, which is almost certainly what's going on here.
