localized folder names

marcus.bauch

Hej l4k3k3m4n .

What is the output of

kopano-admin -l

?

Are there Users having “German Umlaut’s” in it, and they are shown correctly?

Maybe you should set your Web-Servers configuration to de_DE.UTF-8

Apache2 file is called “envvars” (located in directory /etc/apache2/ in Debian).
You should comment out:

## The locale used by some modules like mod_dav
## export LANG=C

## Uncomment the following line to use the system default locale instead:
## . /etc/default/locale

…and add

export LANG=de_DE.UTF-8

Restart Web-Server.

So you can use english (en_US.UTF-8) as Server default language (my preffered language for server).

Maybe this helps ;-)

Hello Marcus,

thanks for your help.
Apache is set to system default locale.

I installed a fresh kopano test system and have the following observation:

I create a user:

kopano-cli --create --user "robin.mueller" --fullname="Robin Müller" --email="robin@mueller.de" --password="1234" --admin-level=0

This is the result:

kopano-cli --list-user
User list for Default (2):
            User           Full Name          Homeserver                                   Store
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
          SYSTEM              SYSTEM              Kopano        8962FFEFFB7B4D639BC5967C4BB58234
   robin.mueller       Robin Müller              Kopano        4AD937BBEE444FBBBB5CA59D1F6C5D45

And here we have a screenshot from the webapp:

One week ago all worked well without problems.
How can I change this behaviour?

Thanks

Look at your /etc/default/kopano file, setting: KOPANO_USERSCRIPT_LOCALE=“de_DE.UTF-8”
is this set at German?

Hej l4k3k3m4n .

Please post your system…

Linux-Version…Kopano-Version a.s.o…

l4k3k3m4n

This is in /etc/default/kopano

KOPANO_LOCALE="de_DE.UTF-8"
KOPANO_USERSCRIPT_LOCALE="de_DE.UTF-8"

I am running

Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
Release:        16.04
Codename:       xenial

WebApp 3.4.6.1233+718.1
Kopano Core 8.5.81

@l4k3k3m4n

…change your

/etc/apache2/envvars

…like described, if you use Apache, and restart your webserver

Maybe it is a bug in WebApp.

Curretly i use:

WebApp: 3.4.5.1200+703.1
Kopano Core: 8.5.81

l4k3k3m4n

Changing envars in apache does not make a difference.

I can use this script to rename the folders:

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

After that the folder names are right.
So I dont think this can be a webapp bug. There must be something wrong during folder creation process.

@l4k3k3m4n

Hmm…okay.

There is another difference…

You use kopano-cli
…i use kopano-admin

Could you try to create a new user with kopano-admin and see what happens?
Should be the same…but, who knows… ;o)

Looks like kopano-admin is a binary and kopano-cli a Python-Script

# file kopano-admin
kopano-admin: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV)

# file kopano-cli
kopano-cli: Python script, ASCII text executable

# cat kopano-cli
#!/usr/bin/env python2
import sys
import kopano_cli
from kopano_cli import __version__

if __name__ == '__main__':
    sys.exit(kopano_cli.main())

l4k3k3m4n

Its the same behaviour with kopano-cli and kopano-admin.

Are the folder names now in english (like the opening post claims) or german, but with broken umlauts (as the screenshot shows)?

If the first, then /etc/default/kopano is the solution to have new stores created in the correct language.
if the latter then there is still php which could mingle the umlauts and should also be supplied with the correct locales.

Hello @l4k3k3m4n,

i got the exact same problem in the past, my fix was to rely on the case sensitive utf8.

your “locale -a” shows

de_DE.utf8

so set the /etc/sysconfig/kopano setting to "KOPANO_LOCALE=“de_DE.utf8” and "KOPANO_USERSCRIPT_LOCALE=“de_DE.utf8"”
not “de_DE.UTF8” or “de_DE.UTF-8” (note the dash)

this should do it. In some cases its useful to rename all folders to english and back to german with your mentioned script
