Pharo 6.1 UTF8InvalidText error
Locked
 
|
Good day! Now i download fresh latest pharo archive and unzipped it to C:\Pharo 6.1. The error still exists. Debugging shows that error comes with reading from environment varaible: ... ByteString(String) convertFromWithConverter: FilePathEncoder class decode: WindowsResolver(platformResolver) resolveString: WindowsResolver(platformResolver) directoryFromEnvVariableNamed:or: ... it tries to read 'USERPROFILE', get envValue 'C:\Users\Викентий' and can't parse cyrillic characters in this path. Please, tell me how to fix it by myself. Best regards, Vikenti. |

Hi. Sorry for the late response. I skipped your mail somehow.You need to try CP1251 converter. In past I used CP1251TextConverter from http://www.squeaksource.com/RussianSupport.html. But now there is very nice ZnCharacterEncoder hierarchy which provides out of the box main encodings. To get cp1251 encoder evaluate:
I not tried to use it in practice. So I could not give you examples for this. But I hope it gives you directions to look at. And question for others: should not we deprecate old TextConverter's and move to zn encoders completely? 2017-11-01 7:15 GMT+01:00 Викентий Потапов <[hidden email]>:

Denis,
His problem is much more fundamental: his Pharo image does not start up (correctly) because some of its paths (his directory/folder names) where Pharo is located uses Cyrillic characters. He has no chance to fix this. I think this is a problem with FileSystem path decoding on Windows. First we needed a way to reproduce this exactly, as always.

Yes, I know. I just described some workaround to find the fix. So my suggestions are: - create user with english name and run Pharo under it. - find the place where FilePathEncoder is called and modify encoding to another one: try CP1251 instead of UTF8 or otherwise. - try to read your Russian folder path with fix (and without fix to ensure reproducible case) - with found solution propose fix for Pharo or at least describe the found problem here. 2017-11-10 12:04 GMT+01:00 Sven Van Caekenberghe <[hidden email]>: Denis, |
