Auto changing local dir doesn't work with Russian path
Last modified: 2006-10-15 18:49:15 UTC
If "Local dir" in bookmark options contains only Latin1 characters, automatic changing local dir to it when selecting bookmark works perfectly. But if it contains Russian characters, directory doesn't change. For example, I set "Local dir" to "/home/wrar/Documents/Папка". Then after selecting this bookmark local sir doesn't change. In log window: Could not change local directory to /home/wrar/Documents/Папка: No such file or directory
This is fixed in CVS and in http://www.gftp.org/gftp-test.tar.bz2
Bug still exists in 2.0.18pre1
Just a few questions: 1) Do you have the remote_charsets option set correctly? If you leave the remote_charsets option blank, it will default to converting it to your current locale. You should only have to set it if the remote server's locale is different than your local machine's locale. 2) If you do have the remote charsets option set properly, then is gftp sending the directory over in UTF8? I'm obviously having some problems with character set conversion in gftp. If anyone can offer me any assistance in this area, I would greatly appreciate it.
Created attachment 33734 [details] [review] Patch I hope I've fixed this bug. Local directory needs to be converted from utf8 to system locale before passing it to chdir().
reopening as a patch has been attached. brian, please take a look at it. thanks in advance... :-) andrey, is this still an issue?
Yes, it is.
