Thanks all,
we found it.
But now i am in real trouble. I tried some de_DE.UTF-8 setting, but all
i get is trouble with the linux console display of charsets.
I assume my ext3 filesystem is now written with iso-8859-15 (AFAIK the
same as the @euro thingy) .
Yes, should be so.
So i get ? instead of umlauts when i change to UTF-8.
Does anyone know how convert the filesystem to UTF-8?
CONVMV(1)
NAME
convmv - converts filenames from one encoding to another
SYNOPSIS
convmv [options] FILE(S) ... DIRECTORY(S)
Or is there a way to convert filename to UTF-8 BEFORE they are written
to the db in bacula?
Not as far as I know. You might try converting the database, though...
but see below for some things to consider.
hmmm.. looks like i am in a pinch now...
Yes, definitely.
First, I wonder, because I did back up many pre-UTF-8 linux systems, but
as these were mainly servers without user files it's possible that there
never were any non-ASCII characters in filenames. Anyway, I never saw
your problem myself.
Second, changing the encoding is a difficult task - you've also got to
think about
A) NFS clients
B) Samba clients (samba can handle different codings itself, though)
C) File names contained in file contents, e.g. configuration files or
links in html-files
D) Terminal settings of your users
E) charset-settings of web servers...
I'm sure you could extend that list yourself :-)
Anyway, I'd be very careful changing existing file names. On the other
hand, I'd be very unhappy without a working Bacula, too.
