Description pedroestarque 2009-01-25 22:43:42 UTC
You can't open files with special characters, for example trying to open test_ç.doc results in the error:
"/Path/to/file/test_ç.doc doesn't exist".

On SolarisSparc this works like a charm

CC for me
Comment 3 rvojta 2009-01-26 15:33:48 UTC
I just tested it and it works perfectly for me. Do you use English version of
Mac OS X? Which OS version? Which locale (open terminal and run 'locale' command)?

>Do you use English version of Mac OS X?
Yes
>Which OS version?
10.5.5
>Which locale (open terminal and run 'locale' command)?

$ > locale 
LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, I can't reproduce it. I modified locale to
en_US.UTF-8 and I haven't localized Mac OS X too. The only difference is that I
have 10.5.6. Sorry, probably others can reproduce it.
Comment 6 pedroestarque 2009-01-26 18:47:03 UTC
I just tried on a guest account and it worked, so it might be due to some old preferences bug.
Thanks anyway
Comment 7 rvojta 2009-01-26 18:54:37 UTC
I hope you didn't removed your settings. Please, can you pack your preferences
directory which works, pack your preferences directory which doesn't work and
attach them to this bug. So, we can see where's the difference and what can
cause these problems.
