[jira] Created: (VFS-302) FTP Filename Encoding
FTP Filename Encoding
---------------------
Key: VFS-302
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VFS-302
Project: Commons VFS
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.1
Environment: Linux, vsftpd
Reporter: Oliver Tupran
I tried to copy a file like "münchen.jpeg" using VFS to a remote ftp server, which resulted in a wrong encoded filename on the server.
See also a similar issue from the commons-fileupload project: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FILEUPLOAD-56.
Forgive my newbieness on VFS, but I would really appreciate a solution.
I tried something that worked, but it really seems like a dirty trick:
String encodedFilename = new String(filename.getBytes(), "ISO-8859-1");

I had the same problem with greek file names with FTP. I solved it by adding the following line : client.setControlEncoding("utf-8") in the org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FtpClientFactory's method "createConnection(....)". It worked and now i can handle files with greek file names on a ftp server.

[jira] Commented: (VFS-302) FTP Filename Encoding

Benoit Maisonny commented on VFS-302:
-------------------------------------
I like Nikos' solution: it's simple and to the point. In case people want more control, however, a more involved solution would be to allow configuration of the client via org.apache.commons.vfs.provider.ftp.FtpFileSystemConfigBuilder. This is how VFS users can externally configure other properties such as timeout. FtpFileSystemConfigBuilder would then need new getter/setter for "controlEncoding".
Please consider either solution in a future release. The current situation makes VFS unusable outside US-ASCII-encoded file names, even though the underlying FTP library supports it.
