Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 10029
Hebrew folder names incorrectly disply as escaped characters in error messages
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:02:39 UTC
I was attempting to open a Hebrew power point file that I downloaded from the web. The file was in a folder with a Hebrew name. For some reason, I got an error. the error message included the path to the file, where instead of the Hebrew folder name, it had escaped characters. To repro: 1) make sure your local in win xp is Hebrew. Create a Hebrew folder name. 2) put the attached file in the folder 3) attempt to load the file result: error message contains eascaped characters in the path expected: error message should display Hebrew folder name in Hebrew Comments: Hebrew document names display properly in other alerts (like when closing a modifed file without saving)
Created attachment 4012 [details] the power point file I atempted to open (zipped)
Created attachment 4013 [details] the error message
DL->SBA: Would you please takeover?
The message is a general problem of StarOffice. So this task should be handled by Thorsten Martens. I set this task to target 'OOo 1.1 Beta'
Too late for beta2, re-targeted to 1.1 RC.
Problem doesn´t occur in a beta1 (or beta2) anymore. Document is opened without any errormessage. Pathname is also correctly displaxed in file-open dialog or save-as dialog. So please check if you`re able to let this problem still occur. Thanks !
This task is fixed or worked in OOo 1.1 beta2.
ATR: I close this bug now, because TM checked this in beta2.
