Etcher: .zip: cannot see img file with accentuated characters

[manu-t]

• Etcher version: 1.1.12
• Operating system and architecture: Win7 64 bits
• Image flashed: rpi_robotisé.zip
• Do you see any meaningful error information in the DevTools?
  The decompressed file rpi_robotisé.img is fine, but the zip file doesn'work.
  I presume accentuated charaters is the culprit.
  if a "rpi_robitisé.img" file is in a test.zip file, it doesn'work either.
  Maybe related to #1394

Hmm, I thought we'd fixed all our filename-encoding problems, but looks like you've found a new one ;-)

Please can you provide a link to the rpi_robotisé.zip so that we can download and test it ourselves?

[manu-t]

Well, you can rename any .zip file to "rpi_robotisé.zip" for example, it should reproduce the bug.
If it's not enough and you need a real image, I can send you a private link as it's kinda professionnal... so I don't know if I can share it.

Hmm, I just did some testing using a dummy image file I made, and in all combinations I tried it works okay :-/

| Zip filename | Image filename | Works in Etcher 1.1.2 |
| --- | --- | --- |
| _n/a_ | rpi_robitisé.img | :heavy_check_mark: |
| _n/a_ | test.img | :heavy_check_mark: |
| rpi_robitisé1.zip | rpi_robitisé.img | :heavy_check_mark: |
| rpi_robitisé2.zip | test.img | :heavy_check_mark: |
| test1.zip | rpi_robitisé.img | :heavy_check_mark: |
| test2.zip | test.img | :heavy_check_mark: |
| rpi_robitisé.zip | rpi_robitisé.img | :heavy_check_mark: |

Perhaps there's something 'special' about how your zipfile is created? Please try testing with https://resin-nightly-downloads.s3.amazonaws.com/etcher/2017-09-22/1.1.2%2Bcb7117a/Etcher-Setup-1.1.2%2Bcb7117a-x64.exe which uses a newer version of node-stream-zip, and if that doesn't work then please send a private link to [email protected]

I sent you a link to the image in your e-mail. (The zip file is generated by 7-zip)
I didn't manage to make the new executable work (missing dll or other ressources as there are no images on the screen).

I've received your email and downloaded your file, thank you. And I can confirm that Etcher is unable to write the image - after selecting the zipfile, Etcher behaves as though no file was selected at all :-/

I wonder if it might be some kind of filename encoding-issue within the zipfile itself though? I'll do a more thorough investigation later, but I noticed that (on Linux) unzip -l ~/Downloads/rpi_robotisé.zip lists the enclosed filename as rpi_robotisВ.img whereas 7z l ~/Downloads/rpi_robotisé.zip displays rpi_robotis‚.img. What version of 7-zip are you creating this zipfile with?
For comparison, both unzip and 7z correctly display the enclosed filename in my test rpi_robitisé1.zip as rpi_robitisé.img. (Haha, I've just realised I named my test files with ..robiti.. instead of ..roboti..)

I have a pretty old 7-zip : v9.20. I will try to update it...

[manu-t]

same with 7-zip 16.04 64 bits

[lurch]

Cool, thanks for trying with the updated version. We'll try to dig into this problem soon.

@lurch where is that .zip file? Is there some place I can get it? I'd like to have a look to see what's wrong there.

[lurch]

Argh, I totally forgot about this, sorry @manu-t !

@jhermsmeier I'll send you a PM...
