[rdiff-backup-users] Rdiff-backup 1.1.16 crash

[Craig Findlay]

Hi all,

 

I know 1.1.17 has been released, however a colleague and I have been chasing a crash in 1.1.16 that appears to be due to filenames that contain unicode type characters.

 

A typical filename that causes this is:

 

'/Volumes/LACIE/b/Project/2005/2005389AL/Docs Out/Da003 2005389 facade glazing apartments - BLL proposed opt\x85.pdf'

The \x85 appears to be the problem. We have a PDF generator that seems to like putting these types of characters in the names of the files it generates.

 

Typical crash output follows below:

Sorry for the html formatting of this email. I am currently using Microsoft OWA so it can't be helped.

 

Cheers,

Craig
