[Deploying Sakai] problem with storing binary content on the filesystem

[Steve Swinsburg]

Hi Wendy,

Ah so the filename has the Chinese characters. Does this Jira describe what you are seeing:
https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-9715

Have you enabled UTF-8 in the Tomcat connector and created your database as UTF-8?

I just created a file with Chinese characters in it, uploaded it to Sakai (2.8 nightly) and the URL was:
http://nightly2.sakaiproject.org:8087/access/content/group/mercury/素菜汤水.xls

It downloaded ok, but the file was saved as:
%E7%B4%A0%E8%8F%9C%E6%B1%A4%E6%B0%B4.xls

when it got to my Desktop.

That is probably another issue which I'll look in to, but I think it should work if you have your system set as UTF-8.

cheers,
Steve
