Media Monitor not liking filenames with ñ - Airtime Support Discussions on Sourcefabric Forum

Alan Pater

We are testing 1.9.4 installed via apt-get. We've added a watched folder, but nothing gets added. The error log is as follows:

same error here
with all directories
upload is working well
but nothing appear after on the web

and we have the this kind of error :

2011-09-27 20:29:19,231 ERROR - [MainThread] [MediaMonitor.py : <module>()] : LINE 92 - Exception: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 15: ordinal not in range(128)

It's a non saxon bug ! Laughing

"Python always defaults to ASCII. It hits that fourth byte which has a decimal value of 226 that's greater than 126 so Python raises an error. This is the trouble with mixing encodings."

for a lot of not english people that's seem to be a real problem in the future...

and now for us...

P.S. : my system is UTF-8 compliant...

Hi Alan could you send me a link to download the file to my email at martin dot konecny at sourcefabric.org

Adding that line and restarting the airtime-media-monitor service did not work for me. Patiently Wink

awaiting 1.9.5.

Albert FR

your system is utf8 compliant ? or not ?
to be in utf8 is mandatory

Alan Pater

~$ cat /etc/default/locale
LANG="es_GT.UTF-8"
LANGUAGE="es_GT:es"

PS: We are running Ubuntu 11.04. I assume UTF-8 is the default, no?

Albert FR

mmmhhhh

that's really strange...

perharps due to the 11.04
I'm not sure 11.04 is really well supported by airtime.

For server applications, a LTS is a better decision Wink

I've tried again on virtualbox, and with an another 10.4, the problem was solved too.

but perharps that's due to my install ...

Alan Pater

Agreed that using a LTS version may be a better idea, but our machine runs better on 11.04 with more up-to-date drivers. And the apt repository now includes support for 11.04 (natty) so it should work, no?

Albert FR

I saw ...

Did you have others notifications ?
apache log, etc ?

Howdy, Stranger!
