@klausade then I’m out of immediate ideas.

Hello.

I have the same behavior.

The locale is installed:

root@srv:~# locale -a
C
C.UTF-8
de_AT.utf8
de_DE.utf8
POSIX

I don’t get it why i can change the language to english but not back to german?

Kind regards

I made a ticket for this issue. https://jira.kopano.io/browse/KC-874

Thanks!

The problem is that the script mixes byte and unicode strings. This means that python’s implicit conversion to ascii is triggered, and because the folder names contain characters that can’t be represented in ascii, an exception is thrown.

The script probably has other hidden encoding bugs too. Unfortunately it’s really hard to get this right in Py2, I think the consensus is that the only way to really deal with it is to use unicode everywhere, converting at the “borders”.

Hi,

Can you try the version on https://stash.kopano.io/projects/KSC/repos/core-tools/browse/localize-folders.py
This should already have the fix for this.

Kind regards,

Robin

Hi Robin.

I tested the new python script and this version works fine with the german locale.

Thank you very much.

Kind regards

HI @madpatrick,

This script is using the translation files of kopano-core so it’s need to be change there.
I notified the core team so they can make the change in the next release of kopano-core

To workaround this issue i created a custom .mo file with this change
https://owncloud.kopano.com/index.php/s/b9sXCbonCTFiUiE

Just put this file in /usr/share/locale/nl/LC_MESSAGES/ (Debian)

Hi @robing

I’ve found a script junk-folder-fix.py which rename the folder to the correct name.

https://stash.kopano.io/projects/KSC/repos/core-tools/browse

The only thing is now that i’ve double foldernames : Ongewenste e-mail

Do you see the two folders in WebApp or on a client that is using z-push.
In case of the last one the only thing you can do is recreate that profile.

The Junk folder is not a system folder and therefore a client just checks if it can find a folder that has that name and will just create a local folder if it can’t.

Hello Robing,

I see in Webapp just 1 folder.
The problem accurs only in Outlook.
In outlook the system folder is not the same as in Webapp
