Well…
This is kind’a weird …
-
If I change the autohandler file to use iso-8859-1 and leave RT_SiteConfig.pm with the UTF-8, stuff from “metadata” (custom fields, etc) is Ok but the tickets are garbled.
-
If I change the autohandler file to use UTF-8 and change RT_SiteConfig.pm to use iso-8859-1, tickets are ok … but the stuff from “metadata” is garbled…
-
If I change both to use iso-8859-1, Metadata OK but tickets garbled.
-
If I change both to use UTF-8, Metadata garbled but tickets OK …
Any guesses ? :-/
Cheers,
Try this (an old post):
Well, it looks like I solved the Accents problem:
-
Open your RT_SiteConfig.pm
-
Search for the RT UTF-8 Settings
-
Check if you have this: Set($EmailOutputEncoding , ‘iso-8859-1’);
Probably you have ‘UTF-8’ now. Change it to iso-8859-1. Restart Apache and
it should work (at least, works here).-----Original Message-----

Subject: [rt-users] RT2 to RT3 migration … gosh … HELP !
Hi all
Finally (and after the Storable problems have been solved), I’m almost ready
to upgrade my RT2 system to RT3.
The problem lies on the portuguese characters ( ç, ã , õ … )
The original system is a RedHat 7.3 /Mysql 3 … the new one is a RedHat 9 /
Mysql 4.
Analyzing the database “dump” (made with rt2-to-rt3 package), all the files
in it are ISO-8859 encoded (including the metadata).
It seems that mason is “forcing” the content to be UTF-8 … so, the
portuguese chars are completely garbled on the web interface …
Forcing mason to use en_US encoding (editing the autohandler file), it seems
that the data loaded from the “metadata” file diplays OK … but the ticket
data is garbled (again, ISO-8859 encoding being displayed in UTF-8 ).
Is there a way to work around this ?
TIA
