Tech:Diacritics

[edit] What happens

thumbnails from a new image, with diacritics in the filename, fail to load.

The following message is displayed:

Error creating thumbnail: convert: unable to open image `/var/www/wikitravel/upload/shared//6/65/Ostrava_Masarykovo_nmst.jpg': No such file or directory. convert: missing an image filename `/var/www/wikitravel/upload/shared//thumb/6/65/Ostrava_Masarykovo_nmst.jpg/180px-Ostrava_Masarykovo_nmst.jpg'

It looks like it ignores the non-standard letters when it is looking for a thumbnail.

This problem is caused not just by diacritics, but by any "non-standard" character—that includes characters from other languages. --Peter 16:20, 10 June 2009 (EDT)

[edit] When it happens

when i try to use the image on a wikitravel page, or go to the category page on wikitravel shared.

[edit] What should happen

image should display correctly.

[edit] How to fix it

rename file to remove diacritics or fix bug.

[edit] Additional comments

I tried to rename the file but was unable to do so.

Renaming images is not possible, please just upload it again under a new name. Jpatokal 10:12, 10 June 2009 (EDT)
I have re-uploaded it, and the original has been speedy deleted. Thanks for your help. But of course the bug remains. Cloudz679 08:55, 13 June 2009 (EDT)
