Dear list, I?m running a postfix (2.5.6) / Dovecot (1.1.11) on a Centos 5.2 box. I?ve written a small gui application to simply create Out of Office replys with sieve. The resulting code did work with maildrop without any problems. Now sieve fails when it meets any german umlauts like ? or ?. It just stops compiling the scripts and complains about the missing "};". A simple fix is

Hi, im using net rpc vampire to migrate users/ groups from nt4 to samba3 with ldap backend. But the umlauts (????) in the displayname are malformend. Unix charset in smb.conf is set to ISO8859-1. Any hint how to correct this? Regards S.Drees

Hi there from Germany, I just installed and set up ferret and act_as_ferret for rails. All of them at the most recent version. The development environment is running fine with Mac OS X. But I got problems with the productive environment (debian). In the (mysql-)database are few records stored, containig german umlauts (? for example). Running a query for "k?ln" returns the correct

Hi everyone! I think I stumbled over a bug in the latest R 2.9.2 patched for OS X: > R version 2.9.2 Patched (2009-09-24 r49861) > i386-apple-darwin9.8.0 When I try to sort latin1-encoded character vectors, R sometimes crashes with a segmentation fault. I'm running OS X 10.5.8 and have observed this behaviour both with the i386 and x86_64 builds, in the R.app GUI as well as on

Hi @all... Following configuration i used before samba 3: character set = ISO8859-1 codepage = CP850 I could read an write files with umlauts from my Win2k Client. Doing an ls at the linux console showed a ? (question mark) instead the umlaut, but using mc (Midnight Commander) shows the right char. I was quite happy with this setup. Now, with samba 3.0.0final-1 (from Debian/sarge), I tried

My samba setup cannot handle files whose names contain german umlauts (????). The server is samba 2.2.8a-1 on Redhat 8.0 (from the binary RPM from the samba site), the client is running WinXP Home Edition. When I create a file whose filename contains umlauts on the samba share from the WinXP machine, the filename is displayed with question marks instead of the umlauts by ls on the linux machine,

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, I am running R 2.01 on SuSE 9.2 and I use GNU-Emacs and ESS. When using umlauts like ?? ?? ?? ?? for e.g. plot titles , I enter them directly in the code, like plot(seq(from=-4,to=4,length=100),dnorm(seq(from=-4,to=4,length=100)),main="Gau??-Verteilung") I get a dotted box just after the "Gau" and before the "??"

Hi all I have to generate some test data for import in an sql database. The database is meant for web-based data entry in a study taking place in a german speaking region, so factor levels of the variables include umlauts. The variables in the dataframe t.muster are generated e.g. like this: t.muster$screening <- rep("ausgef?llt",50) and exported to a .csv file by:

Hi, after a lengthy but unsuccessfull search I couldn't come up with a solution to the following problem: I would like to have a "comma" instead of a "point" as the decimal point in my graphics, i.e. postscript and pdf files, for I write my thesis in German. My system is: OS: Debian Unstable R-Version: 2.0.1 System locale: de_DE at euro Could someone, please, help

I am developing an application in German. This means I have umlauts. When I was using rails version 0.13.1 there seemed to be no further configuration needed for umlauts to be shown correctly. Now I have upgraded to 0.14.2 and the umlauts are being displayed at ''?''s. I changed the encoding of the page and it is UTF-8. I have also tried the steps listed at

i wanted to file a bug in the rubyonrails trac, since trac is currently broken, i am writing this here. maybe there is a solution allready: auto_complete_for has no support for umlauts. this i a very big problem for non-english developers out there, since almost everything searched for contains umlauts. * searching by umlauts is not possible * displaying of the found entries is screwed see

Hallo Samba-users, I've got a problem mounting a windows-share via mount / smbmount: The mount itself works without any problem, but when I try to enter a directory with a Umlaut (such as "?,?,?") the command fails. All the umlauts are replaced with a question mark when I "ls" in the directory which contains the directory with the umlaut. Changing the character set

I have a file which contains non-ASCII characters (umlauts, accented characters, etc.) both in its filename as well as its content. The only way I have been able to see these characters is inside vim, where they are displayed correctly no matter what I have LANG set to. My default LANG is en_US.utf8, but I have tried de_DE.utf8, de_DE.iso88591, and various others. In the output of a

Cheers, I work on a german site that obviously includes german words with umlauts in its data. It seems like the html_escape function (or simply h() function) will not escape umlauts: <%=h "ä" %> Will not produce &auml; What is the best way to do this?

Hi, recently I see lots of logs like this. I figured, that many have umlaute in their name - but not all. My local FS displays the umlaute correctly - but it is not displayed correctly in the logfiles. Also, when I browse through shares via Windows or MacOSx all files with umlaute seem to be displayed correctly. May 5 08:27:54 Storage-01 smbd[39207]: recycle: stat for

Dear helpeRs, on my new machine - Windows 7 64Bit, R 2.15-2, I can no longer source files for which the path contains the o-Umlaut (?). As a historical burden, my username is Gr?mping and contains that Umlaut (I wouldn't have chosen it now, but decided to keep it for easy transfer). I have had the difficulty that I couldn't use the R CMD tools on files with Umlauts in the path (and

After I have found out that I have to tell ess-mode in emacs to use an iso-latin<n> encoding scheme to communicate with the R subprocess, including umlauts in labels works, at least for writing to postscript. Only the X11-display still makes trouble: It uses a font that has some russian characters in the position of the umlauts in latin-1/9. Is there a way to tell R to use a font that

Dear group-members, I´m a little frustrated, since I have updated on Rails 1.2.1: My application uses some tables from a MySQL database encoded in UTF-8. With Rails 1.1.8, I had no problems with displaying German Umlauts (ÄÖÜäöüß) in views and forms, all went well without the need to worry about charsets and encoding. Since yesterday, my browsers (Safari, Firefox) only display little question
