TW5 Can't save when path contains greek letters

[ara...@gmail.com]

I can't save the wiki when the destination path contains a folder with greek letters in windows 7.

I end up with js error

[Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80520015 (NS_ERROR_FILE_ACCESS_DENIED) [nsIFileOutputStream.init]"  nsresult: "0x80520015 (NS_ERROR_FILE_ACCESS_DENIED)"  location: "JS frame :: chrome://tiddlyfox/content/overlay.js :: TiddlyFox.saveFile :: line 98"  data: no]

any solution to this?

Would you consider not using those letters?

I find using characters from non-standard charsets a bad practice. Please note that with non-standard I mean the more basic charset a computer will work with. I'm Spanish and I never use characters like ñ or € or spaces. I'm pretty sure Jeremy will try to fix your problem, but you will not have so much lucky with other programs/computer systems.

Hi aravias

That sounds like a bug. I've created a ticket for this issue:

https://github.com/TiddlyWiki/TiddlyFox/issues/25

I'll try to investigate it soon,

Best wishes

Jeremy

@DanieloI:
I understand what you are trying to say.
Sure i can leave without greek letters, but this is not the normal case.

In greek we don't use latin chars, even greek A char is a different char, and in windows 7 localized version the "My Documents" folder is named "Τα έγγραφα μου", so i can't save TW5 there due to the greek letters...

I also understand that dealing with intenationalization issues is not an easy job.

thanks for your help

I have no idea about that. But as I said, I'm pretty sure Jeremy will fix it.

Just curious: don't you experience a lot of problems because that?

I am used to deal with such problems (personally). My real problem that bugs like this may discourage my students to start work with TiddlyWiki.

(In a poor atempt to start a flame war) ;) Why not teach your students to drop Windows and use Linux? :D
