Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ciur/papermerge/issues/188

Originally assigned to: @ciur on GitHub.

I would think this problem is papermerge rather than the docker image so I am submitting the issue here

Description
I am living in France so many filenames use é, è, à etc as accented characters.
Files are not uploaded if the filename contains accented characters.
Is this related to the use of SQLite (default) or other?

Info:

OS: [e.g. Synology NAS DSM with Docker image]
Browser [chrome, firefox]
Database [SQLite]
Papermerge Version [1.5.0]

Hi @Goliath67, thank you for opening this issue.
Application definitely works with Russian cyrillic and I saw it managed to upload (on demo site) even filenames with Japanese characters - thus it sounds unlikely to have a problem specifically with french accented characters.
I would help to investigate your issue if you can mention filename or (even better) a sample of problematic file.

Hi,
I just tried uploading the file to the demo website and it does indeed work correctly!
So would it be a problem because of using SQLite (default install) rather than MariaDB?
Or is it a problem I should rather transfer to the docker image github page?

SQLite by default works with character UTF-8 encodings as expected (i.e. works with french é, è, à characters).
My suggestion is to open a bug to whatever docker image provider you use (or whomever packages Papermerge application for you).

Same issue for German umlauts. File can be uploaded, but PDF rendering breaks.

@l4rm4nd is still the case? I saw that ticket was closed on linuxserver's side. It is ok to close the ticket here as well?

imho this issue is related to docker packaging, has nothing to do with application code.

I also think this was a bug in the docker image itself provided by linuxserver. Can be closed from my side!
Newest Papermerge 1.5.5 works like a charm. No accents bugs.
