I have an annoying issue with scalix related to german umlauts. First, what I did that this problem occured:
Setting up scalix
dl'ed SUSE-10.0-EvalDVD-i386-GM.iso, burned it, installed from that me as debianer must say, SuSE netinst sucks!

dl'ed scalix-core-intel-suse-10.0.1.tar.gz, untared that, tried to install, failing due to "wrong" distro and some missing packages
changed /etc/SuSE-release so it shows (apparently just added "OSS", I absolutely don't get the SuSE naming scheme)
Code: Select all
SUSE LINUX 10.0 (i586) OSS
VERSION = 10.0
installed the missing packages and finally installed scalix without major problems
Adding users with SAC
Added about 5 users all went ok, number 6 had umlauts in his name and adding failed... somehow (don't remember the exact errormessage). If I try to delete that user through SAC, or just let me show the contents of this account I get
Code: Select all
Die Benutzerinformationen für den ausgewählten Benutzer konnten nicht geladen werden.
Code: Select all
Konnte nicht löschen: Anja Gr?terich.
If I try to delete the user with omdelu
Code: Select all
thebe:/opt/scalix/bin # omshowu -n Anja.Grueterich@tcw.local

thebe:/opt/scalix/bin # omdelu -n Anja.Grueterich@tcw.local
[OM 8013] The name/mailnode contains invalid characters
omdelu: No users were deleted
Trying to fix it
I added some variables to setclasspath.sh
Code: Select all
thebe:/opt/scalix/bin # head -n 5 /opt/scalix-tomcat/bin/setclasspath.sh|tail -2export LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
export LC_ALL=de_DE.UTF-8
thebe:/opt/scalix/bin #
made sure that my locales settings are correct anyway
Code: Select all
thebe:/opt/scalix/bin # locale
LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
and if I look in what environment tomcat is actually running
Code: Select all
thebe:/opt/scalix/bin # cat /proc/`lsof -i :8005|tail -1|cut -d " " -f5`/environ | tr "\0" "\n"|egrep "LANG|LC_ALL"
LC_ALL=de_DE.UTF-8
LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
thebe:/opt/scalix/bin #
and still can't delete or get to the account (SAC) of that user
I got all the steps I did trying to fix that from various posts from this forum, did I miss a post? Any suggestions? It may be that now I could add users with umlauts but I am not in the mood of testing that without further help, I don't wan't too much "dead" users in this initial test-setup and of course I try to understand what went wrong and maybe if this issue could be addressed in the installer in the first place.
If all fails, for me it would be ok for now if I could just delete that user somehow and I would not use umlauts for the testusers so I can go on testing the other things.
TIA
