I am using sc Version 9.9.013 (8)
I am facing a very big problem, and i really don’t know why this happens.
Basically all i want to do is upload files named in Greek characters to the tmp folder.
I am using a simple control form, and the application settings are Unicode UTF-8 - language Greek
Let’s say we have 1 file, named like this: ελλαδα123.png
-
It’s working fine in the development server. (Localhost)
-
But in the production server works ONLY IF THE FILE NAME BEGINS WITH AN “ENGLISH” CHARACTER, even if the following characters are in Greek.
For example:Uελλαδα123.png
Otherwise if the file doesn’t start with an english character and you upload the file in the production server like this: ελλαδα123.png the file is uploaded like this: ?????123.png
Inside the database (mysql) the Document name is stored correctly no matter if it is in production env or in development…no matter the file is named like this: ελλαδα123.png or ελλαδα123.png
So I know the problem is somewhere in the upload part with the encoding maybe ?
Can anyone help me solve this ? I can’t tell my clients to rename their files from Greek to English for obvious reasons.
I will do some tests, and i will look this very deep.
I will return with the feedback.
I also found this topic from 2013 that is exaclty the same with me, the guy wants to name his file in japanese characters. The answer is still unknown
