Non-latin letters in file name

[k1lljoy]

I've stumbled upon one more issue...
If the image file, being uploaded, contains non-latin symbols (letters) - for instance, russian (cyrillic) letters, they would be omitted in the name of the uploaded image, for example:
best_фото_123.jpg will most likely turn into best__123.jpg

And if the file name contains just non-latin letters, without numerals and latin ones, then the uploader will get an error:

"Ошибка при загрузке фотографии:
.jpg: Неправильный формат файла (, image/jpeg)"  

which means, that the photo has a wrong format...  
And the photo won't be uploaded as well in that case, which is a bit disappointing  

Are there any possible solutions to this issue?

This is a tricky situation. You can try replace in includes/upload.php

Code: (PHP) [Select]

     $this->file_name = preg_replace("/[^-\._a-zA-Z0-9]/", "", $this->file_name);
with this:

Code: (PHP) [Select]

     $this->file_name = preg_replace("/[^-\._a-zA-Z0-9а-яА-Я]/", "", $this->file_name);

I don't know if it works, because text on this forum is in unicode and your .php file is probably in different charset...anyway try to play with that line, I'm confident you'll understand what needs to be changed in that line (just in case, a quick explanation what this line does: if filename contains characters that are not in that list - remove them)

Thanks, Vano!

Hmm... I did those changes... Right now, when I'm trying tu upload a pic with an all-cyrillic name - I get some result:

"Warning: rename(.jpg,.jpg.bak) [function.rename]: No such file or directory in /var/www/razruha/data/www/razruha.ru/includes/annotate.php  on line 22"

and no result is displayed, just an empty space with the size of the image 

Although via ftp I can clearly see the uploaded file, albeit non-annotated.

But it's not displayed on the details page  dunno why

If we take a look on a source of the pic, it shows the correct place, where it actually is:
/data/media/Переход.jpg  or
/data/media/30/%D0%9F%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%B5%D1%85%D0%BE%D0%B4.jpg

but still not displayed on the page (

I already feel lots of difficulties with that issue 
Maybe there's some more simple way, for instance -  to rename non-latin names into smth on some particular basis?

I gave up on this issue....
http://www.4homepages.de/forum/index.php?topic=27277.msg147707#msg147707


so I decided not to keep the original file names but to rename the pics on upload...
so in the includes upload.php

change
     $this->name = $regs[1];

to
      //$this->name = $regs[1];
     $this->name = time();

I think that was all I did... so now you should have your files named something like 1288274563.[extention]

I hope this helps

Столкнулся с такой же проблемой. Проблема в том, что если тип файла написан БОЛЬШИМИ буквами, то 4images отказывается принять такой файл и сообщает, что "неправильный формат"

EN
Faced with the same problem. The problem is that if the file type in capital letters, then 4images refuses to accept the file and reports that "incorrect format"

[1.7.8] Can't upload images with capital letters in extension(.JPG, .Png, etc)
