--- Comment #137 from David Edmundson <k...@davidedmundson.co.uk> --- LANG definitely can make a difference to the way things run. Filesystems don't have a concept of UTF-8 or anything else just a concept of a raw bytestream. We then put that into a QUrl which obviously follows the locale it runs in. Though the worst this should do is (correctly) fail on a file conflict where one didn't previously exist. I think your script is creating a byte array that isn't valid text in any format. I can understand KIO failing to copy that because we don't treat things as a byte stream all the way through. However in your logs KIO isn't silent. Your kioclient log ends with: "Could not make folder /tmp/kiocopy/1545096048/folder_dest/testdir/0l>╚>/1H{n.4🐧N5>2ä<╚#uDJjà57vÉ7BFI*;9jÄ>w@Vdäâ2@Op*8w>i5-by4P{èåhÄÄDw9î1RÆ4x3©h23uÉè)<W?&&,🐧WÄ31Hbv5î,7VTDCrÉï'So🐧D#\"}127z🐧4ij8f®uZ58®pÄJHê®9ÄÅ4Æ-Dj zpN0èg1JB𖡒?Zh{Hom6𖡒B9i1\"èEms2.1.5¾ch@ÅWÆ<äU})2CW1h\t𖡒V9g�." 1 that 1 being the error code So kio did catch the issue and raised an issue. If that was in dolphin etc. that would be an error prompt. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
