@micro an error like
‘ascii’ codec can’t decode byte 0xc3 in position 3: ordinal not in range(128)usually means that your local terminal does not understand utf-8.You can disregard the apache stuff, as this is not directly relevant for the python script.
-
alright, but do you have any suggestion to this error which might lead to success ?
-
@micro man locale-gen
This give you the option to (re-)generate the locales.
dpkg-reconfigure -plow locales
Shows all questions and allows you to select other locales to add and you can set a default with it. -
@micro reconfigure your terminal (not your server) to work with utf-8.
How to do that depends in your terminal emulator, but a quick search should give instructions.
-
well, I am pretty sure for 100% that I did run “dpkg-reconfigure locales” quite after I installed the OS. This is one of the basic steps I perform on a clean install.
When I now run the mentioned command, I see that my settings
de_DE.UTF-8
en_US.UTF-8are highlighted with the asterisk [*]. On the next step I see that de_DE.UTF-8 is used for my default system environment and once I confirm all these settings the locales are generated. But as said before, I have done this step already and I already got those locales installed on my system. I am pretty sure this is NOT the culprit.
just for your understanding. I haven’t choose the locale en_GB.UTF-8 in the dpkg-reconfigure step, but running the command
python localize-folders.py -u mmustermann --lang en_GB.UTF-8or
python localize-folders.py -u mmustermann --lang en_GBboth succeed without errors.

Hai, well what you did, is not know for us.
We have to ask/verify these things.kopano 8.6.9 , then its a python2 to python3 bug.

Maybe because of German Umlaut?
-
yeah, that is why i say its a python2 => 3 bug.
I’ve seen dozens of these on the samba bug list.
I just can not debug these myself (sorry), im not a coder. -
the user @robing links to an updated version of the script which works fine for the user @sebschremser but I cannot access/download it because I have no Bitbucket account. Can I download this updated script somewhere else from?
-
-
@micro the script was moved to https://stash.kopano.io/projects/KSC/repos/core-tools/browse/localize-folders
In case you’re not ignoring me did you check that YOUR TERMINAL EMULATOR can support UTF-8?
-
No, I am not ignoring you. Sorry forgot to give feedback on this.
echo $TERMxterm
echo $LANGde_DE.UTF-8
yes, I’m sure my terminal shows correctly UTF-8. I am using a /etc/motd as a check, which shows german umlauts. In case my terminal wouldn’t support UTF-8 I wouldn’t have seen the characters displayed correctly. But I do! :) so UTF-8 support is given
I would appreciate if anyone could download the updated script and post it somewhere so I could download it and try it out.
EDIT: Oh, you said the script moved. So I have already the latest version. Hmmm… strange, doesn’t work on my side then.
-
well, im running out of options here, i can only say two more things
Reboot the server and try again.
and/or upgrade kopano to a later version. -
@micro said in once more localizing folders:
so UTF-8 support is given
in that case please get into contact with our support so that someone could check directly on your system.
