WebDAV extension and German "Umlaut"

[extasic]

Dear Boardmembers,

I am working with v 7.0a of Total Commander and the latest WebDAV plugin v 1.6 from the official plugin page.

The plugin itself works perfectly, but it doesn't display accents (like é) and any German "Umlaut" (like 'Ä') correctly but some strange strings like "é" or "ü" instead. Using Windows Webfolders the names are displayed as they should, so it doesn't seem to be a Windows issue, does it?

Do you have any ideas how to correct this?

Thank you in advance!

Those strange strings look as typical incorrectly interpreted utf-8. Did you try to enable "Send/Receive accents in URLs as UTF-8 Unicode" in connection settings?

Thank you for your answer!
Yes, I tried to enable this option, but it didn't change anything.

This is the relating part of the logfile when listing a folder called "Hörbuch"

Code: Select all

Get dir: \disk\X\Audio\Hörbuch
PROPFIND /disk/X/Audio/H%c3%b6rbuch/ HTTP/1.1
207 Multi-Status

These log entries stay the same when changing that setting.

"Hörbuch" is displayed as folder name instead of the right name "Hörbuch".

Any other ideas?

I tried it with Apache 2.2.9 on Windows and it works for me. Without utf-8 option, I see "Hörbuch", when I enable utf-8, I see correct "Hörbuch".
And because %c3%b6 is utf-8 encoded "ö", it must be what plugin got from server as part of file listing => server seems to be using utf-8 and enabling it in plugin should help.
So try again, make sure that the settings were saved correctly, etc. Other than that, I'm out of ideas.

you were right and I was wrong - my mistake was not to restart Total Commander after changing that setting.. Anyway, now it works as it should - thank you!
