Description

If one of the german special signs is used in a filename we get trouble if they are uploaded. It is possible to upload a file with such a sign but building the list of all attachments ends in a failure.

You get:

UnicodeEncodeError'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xdf'
 in position 37: ordinal not in range(128)

The only way I know to get this failure solved is to go on the server and to remove this file manually. -- ReimarBauer 2005-06-02 07:15:56

  • I have seen this problem is solved in the DesktopEdition. I won't try this in this wiki because I don't know what would happen. -- ReimarBauer 2005-06-02 10:54:40
