Issue with image file name contaning Japaneese characters

chandran.m · #1 (**permalink**) 07-01-2009

Hi,

i have created some image files with name conatining Japaneese characters "Banner Image 2 _ with Japan char_こくさいかんけい.jpg", but when i see this file in unix file system (through WinSCP) its showing lilke "Banner Image 2 _ with Japan
char_こくさいかんけい.jpg". Becoz of this the image is not appearing in the portal.

I believe that this issue will be get resolved if i add japanese language (japan locale) to the OS.

If i am right how can i add some more locales to my OS (Sun Solaris).

Any help/Suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Chandran

If Solaris shows the filename correctly but WINSCP does not then then I believe it is the Windows end that needs something doing to correct the displaying of the Japanese characters. If a Solaris file browser (e.g. dtfile(1) )shows the file listed in incorrectly then installing the fonts and partial locale would be required but I don't think it would resolve the problem at the Windows end.
