When I start up Filezilla in Haiku hrev57937+129, I get an error message like this
“Character encoding issue: A local filename could not be decoded. Please make sure the LC_CTYPE (or LC_ALL) environment variable is set properly. Unless you fix this problem, files might be missing in the file listings. No further warning will be displayed this session. OK. ”.
(in English)
I checked the LC_CTYPE environment variable and it’s set to “ja.UTF-8” which seems ok. The LC_ALL does not return any value.
Then I click “OK” and continue to boot up Filezilla and in fact the directory listing does ignore the files and directories with Japanese character sets in their file names (such as with the folder “ウェッブサイト” in the directory listing below).
Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks for your help!
I tried testing on a live USB stick of the most recent Nightly, but found that the free space was too tight on the USB stick to enable Filezilla to be installed.
Is there a way to easily revert to the Haiku stable version If I were to install the Haiku Nightly over the Haiku stable installion on my computer? (eg. would installing the Haiku stable over the Haiku Nightly enable the OS to be reverted without affecting any of the installed apps or stored data? Thanks.
You can easily upgrade your existing system to Nightly or downgrade it to Beta5 by changing the repository URL and running a pkgman full-sync.
See more details here:
Haiku should replace it automatically,but you can also put your architecture there by hand if you prefer.
On 64bit systems it’s x86_64 and on 32bit systems it’s x86_gcc2.
