trouble with russian filenames in Redhat Linux Fedora 14

[roman_gemini]

Hello.

I'm using Redhat Linux Fedora 14 and last utserver bin. When I'm trying to download some torrent with russian filenames, on disk I see only "??????" instread of russian characters. How to fix this?

[DreadWingKnight]

Using what specific build of uTorrent?

Ensure you are using the latest release (23090 - you should see the revision number of your installation in the web UI by pressing F2 to display the about box). There is a known issue with Cyrillic characters (among others) in previous releases, and one person using Cyrillic has reported success with the latest release. Please post a response so I can have more data points on how Cyrillic character support is working with the current release.

Today i've got same problem!

Debian 5 lenny on headless server.

I'm sure I use latest release 23090 (since 20.11.2010).

Before today everything is ok, I only restart my old (alredy finished) downloads to seedings (they have torrent files with russian characters in filenames!).

Today I try to download new film and rename downloaded _torrent_ file using russian characters, i.e, replace [037bla-bla23984].torrent to "Волшебная сила искусства.torrent". Film was downloaded successfully, now it seeding, but _filename_ is " ????????? ???? ?????????.avi".

Strange for me, what then i'm use webui the filename is correct.

Sorry for my english.

Получил такую же проблему сегодня. Использую Debian Lenny на безмониторном сервере. Только удалённое управление через ssh и webui.

До сегодня я только запускал на раздачу старые загрузки, но сегодня решил закачать заново один из фильмов, при этом переименовал torrent, использовав русские буквы, т.е., вместо [037bla-bla23984].torrent назвал "Волшебная сила искусства.torrent". Фильм загрузился успешно и уже раздаётся, но файл назван "????????? ???? ?????????.avi".

Странно, что в webui имя показывается правильно: "Волшебная сила искусства.avi"

Do you have the appropriate locale(s) defined and specified for the application? What's the value of the LANG environment variable from the terminal where you start the application?

[cedenbal]

Yes, always set:

# echo $LANG

ru_RU.UTF-8

For remote access I'm use Putty 0.60 and "traranslation" in it, too, is always set to UTF-8.

[mcdonald]

Yes, always set:

# echo $LANG

ru_RU.UTF-8

For remote access I'm use Putty 0.60 and "traranslation" in it, too, is always set to UTF-8.

OK - useful information.

I forgot to ask last time: what's the first message displayed when you run utserver in the foreground from a terminal? In your case, it should say

server started - using locale ru_RU.UTF-8

I added that message to the latest release to help diagnose this sort of problem.

[mit]

Is it possible that this problem is because keeping any older conf. and settings files from previos releases?

I realy don't have any problems with Ubuntu 10.10.

[roman_gemini]

I has fixed start daemon line:

daemon "LANG=\"ru_RU.utf8\" $ut_bin -daemon -configfile $ut_conf -settingspath \
$ut_sett -logfile $ut_log -pidfile $ut_pid

by adding LANG=\"ru_RU.utf8\" at the beginning of the line. Now it works great. Thanks for help!

[mcdonald]

Is it possible that this problem is because keeping any older conf. and settings files from previos releases?

I don't think so. Locale setup is handled on program startup, accepting the locale specified by the environment and other defaults external to the program (see man setlocale). The locale used isn't stored in configuration or settings files.

~/utorrent-server# ./utserver

... nothing more

i'm sorry again, but i see on download page latest release is 3.0 build 23090 from november 17 and use it.

Did you ever try the following:

Ensure you are using the latest release (23090 - you should see the revision number of your installation in the web UI by pressing F2 to display the about box).

The startup message indicates that the utserver binary you are running is earlier than 23090. The startup message for 23090 looks like what I posted earlier:

server started - using locale ru_RU.UTF-8

Could you run

find / -type f -name utserver

to see if you have more than one installation?

Also, the size of 23090's utserver binary file is 921107. Can you compare this with the size of the binary file you are running?

[cedenbal]

Ensure you are using the latest release (23090 - you should see the revision number of your installation in the web UI by pressing F2 to display the about box).

Okay, now I fetched the whole package again, reinstalled, recheсk all.

Oh, I forgot to tell you: Thank you very much for tech support and excellent program (small bugs I do not care ).

Yes it WORKS!

After i'm rm all previousely installed version (including previousely unpacked webui) and then reinstall utserver from new downloaded package - it works fine. No troubles in webui when i'm restart daemon, my torrents from symlinked files and directories are start seeding and downloading successfully. And all russian characters in filenames are viewed as they must.

Thank you for this fine software!

Thanks for reporting your successful results. Getting locales working correctly is a high-priority item for me.

server started - using locale C

Prescribes the locale C, if injected with a Russian name, torrent file saves as ???????. torrent, proper and old injection in this case can not hash!

If run from the console:

/sbin/startproc -p /var/run/utserver/utserver.pid -u 1001 -g 100 /opt/utserver/bin/utserver -configfile /etc/opt/utserver/utserver.conf -settingspath /var/opt/utserver/settings -logfile /var/opt/utserver/log/utserver.log

server started - using locale ru_RU.UTF-8

That's all ok! Defines the locale ru_RU.UTF-8, Downloads hashes, torrent stores as needed.

Прописывает locale C,если закачка с русским названием,torrent файл сохраняется как ???????.torrent ,собственно и старые закачки в таком случае не удаётся перехешировать!

Excuse me, hastened the withdrawal!

After stopping the torrent will not start.

check the hash goes, but does not start, writes an error

 Error!?? 

The matter probably is that torrent file takes the name of the injection, that is the Russian name.

example:

VA-Avtoshanson.torrent

preserves

Автошансон.torrent

###############################################

Извиняюсь,поспешил с выводом!

После остановки torrent не стартовал.

проверка хеша идёт,но не стартует,пишет ошибку

Ошибка! ??

Дело наверно в том что torrent файл принимает название закачки,то есть русское название.

пример:

VA-Avtoshanson.torrent

сохраняет

Автошансон.torrent

Why not make that the default system system wide locale instead of doing it before running µTorrent? It sounds like you should have that locale set for your system.
