Problems when using univMSS driver with filenames containing spaces

Closed this issue 12 years ago · 6 comments

The univmssdriver has problems handling filenames with spaces. It doesn't construct an argv and execute the univMSS command directly but constructs a string which is later deconstructed into arguments using space as a delimeter.

Filenames with spaces will result in multiple arguments, causing the univMSS command to misbehave, even if it handles the parameters it receives correctly.

In that line, one should mention Swedish characters in filenames and folders (Unicode issues in general), I hope those are handled well by the univMSSdriver... have you tried that?

@pontus reports also that files with spaces are visible with arcls after upload, so I suppose we can consider this fixed now.

Is iRODS compiled with UTF8?
