Mat, this needs some checking and thinking to make sure it doesn't affect other browsers / languages etc

Mat, Martin,
I can test anything on our Japanese windows environment, if needed.
Martin Dougiamas made changes - 05/Mar/08 10:04 AM
This is actually a big problem if hosted on Windows with IIS: we can't take for granted that the windows filesystem will correctly store unicode characters. The proposed fix is based on a unicode-aware filesystem and database.
I'm testing this out now, under different systems/versions .. we'll see what comes out of it. Just to clarify, the file can be downloaded directly through the Course Folder. However, when presented as a link via Assignment, it fails to download.
What exactly could be different between "Japanese windows" and "English Windows" that would make a problem like this happen? What charset is being used?
When uploading a file with a name consisting only of japanese characters, Moodle displays a filename of `_' (only an underline character), but that's in Linux (Ubuntu). That's not perfect, but it's possible to download the file. The underscore is there because Moodle has stripped them. However, you can enable unicode filename uploads by setting:
$CFG->unicodedb = true; in config.php This will allow you to upload multibyte unicode filenames. The problem seems to occur with the formation of the link on IE: http://192.168.0.1/moodle-18/file.php/2/QA??.xls as compared with Firefox: http://192.168.0.1/moodle-18/file.php/2/QA%E8%B3%AA%E5%95%8F.xls These link formations are the same on the client site. The top link with the proper characters give the error message. The bottom link does not have the problem on both browsers. Testing with the same user (Windows JPN and IE 6), the files download O.K. On the client server, we can download directly from the file directory. When clicking on the link from within an Assignment module, we get the Moodle error. One big difference is that on our local server, we are using MySQL 5.0.4, on the client server 4.1.22. Our local server does not have the problem. The client server does. Quick update:
I tried to download an assignment file using MySQL 5.0.4x on Moodle version 1.8. I was able to get the file to start the download, but the filename text was garbled. At least, we are not getting the Moodle error. Regarding the character set for Japanese Windows, I believe that it is SJIS or shift-JIS. Further developments.
This bug seems to now be isolated to to separate areas. The Missing file problems only seems to occur with the multiple file upload Assignment. For a Single file upload, this is O.K.. The environment of which this happens is the same, Japanese Windows using IE 6. Could this be that the formation of the link in multiple file upload in Assignment gets mangled with IE? The other problem with directly downloading from the Course file area seems to be fixed when Windows has Arial unicode font installed. More information. The following Apache logs shows the difference between the Japanese and English version of attempts to download the same file.

Hi Bill,
Can you try the patch I just attached to this issue? (file: patch-jp-urlencode.1.txt) It's an improvement, and hopefullly it even fixes this bug. I can also send the whole file if it's more convenient.
Mathieu Petit-Clair made changes - 26/Mar/08 05:28 PM
Hi Mat,
The patch failed. Perhaps you can send me the file. At least it would eliminate one point of error. I sent both files (1.9 and 1.8 versions) by email.
Hi Mat,
The patched file for version 1.8 seems to work for Advanced assignment (multiple file upload). I would assume that this can be applied to the other failed links? Below is the Apache log for the successful transfer. [27/Mar/2008:10:22:12 +0900] "GET /file.php?file=%2F56%2Fmoddata%2Fassignment%2F82%2F36%2FQA%E7%AE%A1%E7%90%86A.xls HTTP/1.1" 200 13824 "http://18demo.manabu3.com/mod/assignment/submissions.php?id=365" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0)" Bill
Mathieu Petit-Clair committed 2 files to 'Moodle CVS' on branch 'MOODLE_18_STABLE' - 27/Mar/08 10:48 AM
I just committed changes to both files in the 1.8 branch. Can you test the new files? I'll commit the changes to 1.9 and head as soon as you confirm it's all good.
This seems to work for Assignment. However, for linked files, it still produces the error. Here is the Apache log for the link to a file:
[27/Mar/2008:11:00:37 +0900] "GET /file.php/56/\xe6\x97\xa5\xe6\x9c\xac\xe8\xaa\x9e\xe3\x83\x86\xe3\x82\xad\xe3\x82\xb9\xe3\x83\x81Etxt HTTP/1.1" 404 4603 "http://18demo.manabu3.com/course/view.php?id=56" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0)" Ok, I'll commit the changes for assignments.
There seems to be an awful lot of places where the same changes need to be made. I'll see if there's a better way around this... I think we need to have a function in 1.9 like (v rough!)
function file_url($path) if $CFG->slasharguments then return $CFG->wwroot ..../ url_encode($path) else return $CFG->wwroot .?file = / url_encode($path) I think this patch broke a functionality in the quick grading of assignments:
We are running moodle 1.8.4 (updated today via CVS). The following behavior just started in the past few days. When on the quick grade page for the assignments (eg. http://myserver.com/moodle/mod/assignment/submissions.php?id=4010 Clicking on the Grade or Update word in the "Status" column will allow the documents to download. The following error occurs in the former instance: In the url line in the browser itself, it is converting the "/"s that follow file.php to "%2F". The assignment type is "upload a single file" thanks
Mathieu Petit-Clair committed 2 files to 'Moodle CVS' on branch 'MOODLE_18_STABLE' - 01/Apr/08 09:55 AM
I changed the line to prevent urlencoding of the '/', should fix this issue... Can you confirm? I'm starting work on a much bigger patch that will make this change all over the code, in 1.8, 1.9 and head. Before starting on that, I would like to be convinced this is not going to break more functions...
I ran CVS and the following changes were made:
P mod/assignment/type/upload/assignment.class.php P mod/assignment/type/uploadsingle/assignment.class.php It made no difference .... I even restarted the server (which I think was not necessary) and went back into the course after a restart.. Error message: In the browser: thank for the promptness in lookin at this One clarification requested, Mathieu
Should this fix work with existing assignment uploads or only new ones? If existing records were added to the database with the errant code, what table and field? thanks Is there a reason why it was marked as merged in MOODLE_18_STABLE branch and no code was committed into 19 and HEAD?
reverting all previous commits - urlencode() is designed to be used on url parameters, not the urls - the "/" must not be converted if it is part of real url with slasharguments

Took a few minutes for the commit to show up after the notification from the tracker, but it's there now.
All is working as before the errant code. Thanks Petr larry sending a patch which could work, I can not reproduce the problem in my vista installation

I patched the files and this is what I get from the Japanese OS:

We need to fix this bug, but I'd rather have somebody test it before committing it, than having everybody suffer after...
This is the first thing on schedule next week... Hi Mathieu
Can you send me or post the files that were changed? I use CVS to update (on a Mac OS X build) and am unfamiliar with using diff files per se. I'll check it out. thanks Larry - I sent a zip file with the patched file. I tested it out locally, it's working fine for me. If it's all good for you, I'll commit the backported patch to 1.8, and Petr's patch to 1.9 and head.

Hi Mathieu
I replaced the 4 files on one of our boxes. All worked as desired for 2 new added assignments (one single and 1 multiple). This box had not been updated with Petr's replacement of the errant code, so I was able to see a before/after comparison to the code that caused the introduction of ascii code in place of the / symbol in urls. larry

Thanks for the review!
I committed the patch to 1.8, 1.9 and head. Will wait until after Tuesday-code-review is done, and give everybody some time to report further bug (hopefully, nothing). We will then need to fix it in mod/glossary, mod/exercise and other modules missing proper urlencoding.

Bill, is the problem (for assignments) fixed for you in 1.8?
Hi Mat,
The Advanced upload of files for Assignment is working O.K. for me. Log below: [15/Apr/2008:10:32:13 +0900] "GET /file.php/2/moddata/assignment/1/12/QA%E7%AE%A1%E7%90%86A.xls HTTP/1.1" 200 13824 "http://demo08.manabu3.com/mod/assignment/submissions.php?id=4" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0)" Moodle 1.8.5+ (Build: 20080414) Bill I close this bug, the complete fix will be in 1.9 and head branches, but it requires too much modifications to be in 1.8. There is a patch, though, for people who want it, in

I just committed a small change, we are now using rawurlencode instead of urlencode, so that spaces are correctly encoded as %20 (and not as '+').
