Hi,

I install the Mahara 16.10.0 version in the Eszterhazy Karoly College’s server (Hungary).

The install was successfull and I testing the system.

I have one notice:

In the Files area when I upload a file such as „Óravázlat.docx”, „Összefoglalás.xlsx” the system disappear the first character if begin accent. The file name another accent characters remain, just the first character disappear. In the Files area this example files display „ravázlat.docx” and „sszefoglalás.xlsx” name.

How can I show the complete file name? This is a server settings?

I testing this function my XAMPP localhost and the system show the complete file name when I upload a file which first character include accent.

Thanks,

Zoltan

Szia,

én első körben az adatbázist nézném meg, biztos hogy utf8?

Szia,

Az adatbázis utf8. Esetleg más ötlet?

Bocs,

most látom hogy nem is ez a hiba, hanem csak az első karakter. Kicsivel is ezt csinálja?

Igen, kipróbáltam és a kicsivel is sajnos ezt csinálja. :(

Szinte biztos hogy nyelvi és a helyi beállításoknál van valami.

Ha a rendszert lehet migrálni, készítenék egy új helyet, ahol másik adatbázis típust használnák és másik php verziót és ott is kipróbálnám. A az összes mappa és a maharadata is egyforma nyelvi környezetben legyen. Vagy csak egy üres új próba telepítést is kipróbálhatsz.

Üdv

Hi Zoltan,

Have you tried to upload the file on this Mahara - in your home/content/files area?

https://mahara.org/artefact/file/index.php

Does it do the same thing here?

Thanks,

Hi Ghada,

Now I try on this Mahara upload a file such as „Összefoglalás.doc”, and everything is ok, the system show the accent first character. How can I show the complete file name in the Eszterhazy Karoly College’s Mahara site? Any idea?

Thanks,
Zoltan

Hi Zoltan,

Well, at least that eliminates any error in core Mahara.

Are there any errors in the apache error log?

Do you have any customisations in your Mahara?

Can you confirm the encoding of your database and table columns in particular the artefact table is UTF8?

There's an old post about mix ups with encoding:

Thanks,
