Problem with FTP Server while storing file with special char name,

[Ashok Mor]

Hi,

We have FTP server setup at server side which is of Apache Mina,

I have Apache FTPClient to communicate with FTP server, and sending file with special char (UTF-8) to store, I have already setup encoding as UTF-8 at client side, now FTP server receive the file and store it into destination folder but it replace ‘?’ into filename wherever special char is found.

Does any body have an idea what can solve this problem?



My file name e.g: På følgende du yderligere information og hjælp1.mov
FTP server store it as P?_f?lgende_du_yderligere_information_og_hj?lp1.mov.md5

I've no idea how to solve your problem but just thinking out loud: can your OS store files with that kind of name?

It get resolved as it was the problem with jvm considering charsetfor linux based on LANG proeprty, so i set it as LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, and issue get resolved.

That's great you were able to resolve your problem. Just to clarify, the LANG property is a shell environment variable, right?
