fileupload element error: filename not readable in list

[troester]

Both (my local xampp)

I renamed jellyfish60.jpg to ???????60.jpg which is no problem under Windows.
The uploaded files (normal + thumb) are renamed to these other characters.

Hmm, I can't replicate that:

In that shot you can see the file on disk (in the upload folder), the filename in the table, and the filename shown browsing the form (clicking on it and bringing up a lightbox).

What character set and collation is your table / upload element field?

I had to change mine to utf8 / utf8_general_ci when I was testing the other day, to get it to correctly store UTF8 (no big surprise there).

Hmm

So I assume it's a Windows/PHP-version thing
My test page is still running with php5.6

Yup, it's not working with php <=7.0, but working wirh php7.2 (I don't have a 7.1 setup)

Are you sure you did a full github update?




Hmmm. I'll see if I can replicate this.

By "on Windows", you mean the server, the client, or both?

well send a pic from joomla admin:

i tried again, a full github update
and put "No" at the specific line of the .ini file, but still underscores...
i have to make all changes of page: Added 'clean filename' option, to disable default behavior of allowing only alphanumeric ?

ehmm, where?
After a correct GitHub update you'll find a new option in the fileupload element settings

as conclusion: the name of the every file (not only pictures) it doesn't appeared, in list, until the first non greek character
so if the name is: ??_?????.gif , it will appeared like: _?????.gif

 

[troester]

I can't replicate.

But this may be again some issue depending on OS and php version (I'm testing on Windows10, xampp with php7.2)

 

[cheesegrits]

I can't replicate this either:

do you now an edition of ubuntu server (and php, joomla as well) that works ?

 

[cheesegrits]

Nope. And this is why we originally made the decision to normalize names as 7 bit alphanumeric, because handling of multibyte filenames is so OS and PHP version specific. We don't have the time to test all the permutations.

I'm currently working on setting up a client site on Ubuntu (artful), if I get some time I'll run a quick test on it.

i have try in 16 & 18 version of ubuntu but i had the same
Can you please tell me, as alternative, how to write in "Rename Code" so that file name it will be (user id + file name) ?

I just tested on Ubuntu 17.10, and it works fine:

It also renders fine on the front end, in a Gantry 5 template.

The rename code must 'return' a value, and it doesn't do placeholder substitution. So you'd need to do something like:

$user = JFactory::getUser();
return $user->get('id') . $filename;

i'll try Ubuntu 17.10,
is it 32 or 64 bit ?

 

[cheesegrits]

I doubt very much it has anything to do with the OS. I have no idea if I'm using 32 or 64 bit, but I suspect it's 64.
