Cyrillic for 866, Linux uses UTF-8) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-06-08 03:53:53] maxspeed40k at gmail dot com windows 7 (32bit) php 5.4 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-08-24 05:36:52] chrodos at gmail dot com I also confirm this bug in the Greek language. The problem is that it has severe implications in popular opensource applications like moodle. Please read related bug: http://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-24928 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-05-30 08:51:41] mikhail dot v dot gavrilov at gmail dot com I also confirm this problem. Workaround: Helps converting to your DOS encoding. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-02-18 14:05:12] pajoye@php.net At some point the library will support UTF-8 (as zip specs allow that). But it is not yet implemented. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-02-18 14:04:29] pajoye@php.net the library does nothing but to take the names you give as inputs. The problem is also visible when a zip archive contains entries namend using UTF-8 or other random encoding. These names are used to the filesystem APIs, which expect string endonded using the active run time CP. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
