Perforce repository cannot be added
Problem
When you try to add a Perforce repository in Fisheye, the following appears in the atlassian-fisheye.log:

Diagnosis
You are running Fisheye as a Windows service, and SYSTEM is the account used to start the service.
However, running p4 protect -o in a command line client shows (among other users):
super user <p4_user_name_here> * //...The above output shows that <p4_user_name_here> is a super user, while users with read privilege should be enough to be used in Fisheye.
And you are specifying this <p4_user_name_here> user in the repository configuration page in Fisheye:
So, Fisheye is not really using the SYSTEM account to authenticate with the Perforce server. Hence, the error message is misleading.
Cause
A wrong Charset is being used.
Resolution
Make sure that UTF-8 has been chosen as Charset:
