[0.7.11] Can't delete rss-feeds with german umlauts in it

[Widofnir]

Hello sabnzbd-Team,

I just discovered following bug: I tried to add a RSS-feed, and used german umlauts in the name-field. If you do so, you can't delete that feed anymore.

My system:
OS: Windows 7 ULTiMATE x64
sabnzbd: v0.7.11


Details:



After adding the rss-feed "test with german umlauts -> ä ö ü" in above-shown picture, I was not able to delete that feed anymore. If I press the Button "X" next to that rss-feed, I received a message "Are you sure?", but pressing "yes" there does not remove it at all.

Workaround:


I closed sabnzbd, opened sabnzbd.ini and changed line 293 to

[[Test with german umlauts -> a o u]]

After a sabnzbd-restart I was finally able to delete it.

If you need any further information, don't hesitate to contact me .

Kind regards,
Widofnir

I tested this on my Ubuntu with SAB 0.7.11, and I can confirm the problem. And sabnzbd's stdout says:

Code: Select all

2013-03-21 00:03:58,122::DEBUG::[config:619] Missing configuration item rss,Test of René

I checked sabnzbd.ini, and the line is:

Code: Select all

name = Test of Ren

Code: Select all

[[Test of Ren<E9>]]
pp = ""
enable = 0
name = Test of Ren<E9>

Code: Select all

hd sabnzbd.ini

e9 is correct Extended ASCII Codes for é, but soomething weird is going on.

Checking sabnzbd.log:

Code: Select all

004a8252

So there the code is c3? That's Ã? Strange; it shows correctly on my console output

EDIT:

Ah: it's C3 A9, and that's the encodeURI(chr) of é:

Code: Select all

chr 	HexCode  	Numeric  	HTML entity 	escape(chr) 	encodeURI(chr) 	 Description
é	\xE9	é	é	%E9	%C3%A9	latin small letter e with acute

So somewhere the encoding goes from Extended ASCII to encoodeURI ... ?

Will only be fixed in the 0.8.0 release, which will support full Unicode.
