Language related agent problem

Hi all,

we use Domino 6.5.1 with added german language pack on SLES 8 (UnitedLinux SP3). We use a large Domino DB updated by an agent which processes data from a text file. The textfile contains german characters. If the agent is run via the console command “tell amgr run…” from my workstation it processes well. If it is run automatically all strings which contain german characters are cut at the position of the first occurence of this character and a question mark appears at this position.

Example:

original string: “line_with_ä_german_character”

resulting string: “line_with_?”

What goes wrong here ? Is there a parameter which must be set in notes.ini on the server ?

Help would be appreciated.

Hi!

I guess you are running an english domino server on an english windows box. I think you have to install the german character set on the windows control pannel.

Hello Michael,

no, as I described we run an english Domino server with added german language pack on a SuSE Linux Enterprise server 8. Any further information ?

Hi all,

we found out the solution to this problem and let it know the community now.

Use the “Charset=…” optional setting in the “Open filename” statement. A list of valid charset names can be found in Designer help. In our case “ISO-8859-2” did the job.
