fail if org file contains UTF-8 characters #10

Open philohistoria opened 5 years ago

philohistoria commented 5 years ago

If the org file contains ascii characters only, orgstat works fine. If the file is encoded as utf-8 because I use Chinese characters, it fails.

The log looks like: (journal.org contains Chinese characters and the file is saved as utf-8).

Is there any solution to this problem? Thanks!!

Hi @philohistoria. This is most likely caused by the locale misconfiguration and doesn't have anything to do with the orgstat in particular. Orgstat doesn't do anything special to the locale settings and just uses the one chosen by the system, so try searching for the hGetContents: invalid argument (invalid byte sequence) in general, it's quite a popular error.

I assume this have been either solved or otherwise is irrelevant and thus should be closed?
