Strange, i have changed the system language on both systems, have set the defeult encoding to utf-8 in httpd confs, restarted and rebooted but the results are the same.
addding define('UPDRAFTPLUS_NO_BINZIP', true); to wp-confug does not seem to do much ((
I guess thats it now is a server issue, i will find a guru that may be able to help

You can check the first few lines of the UD log file to see what the environment variable LANG variable is set to - this is what the zip binary picks up and uses. It should be something that includes UTF8, and not be just C. e.g. On mine:
$ echo $LANG
en_GB.utf8

Thanks
if i do that in terminal i get en_US.UTF-8
Thats if im logged in as root and is concitent with the default i setup while doing dpkg-reconfigure locales
I noticed that other programs dont trust zip to handle filenames directly and use iconv to deal with it.
is that old info? Please dont feel im trying to blame or push u or smth, im just very curious now ))
mmmm something i do notice is that on the old box the content is served as jpg but on the dev box its served as html: I take that info from chrome inspector filetype.

Hi Beltex,
iconv would only come into it if you're trying to extract from a zip file created with filenames in the wrong encoding. That can be done; there's an example script for doing that here: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/garbled-non-ascii-characters-file-names?replies=8#post-7382696
However, if you run your webserver in a UTF8 locale, so that it is able to process UTF8 filenames that are on your filesystem as UTF8, then you won't need that.
Running this through a browser will tell you what the current setting is:
<?php echo $_ENV['LANG']; ?>

Hello,
How can I test if the backups created by updraftplus will work when trying to restore them? I have created a wordpress installation on my local computer using InstantWP5.5. When I tried to re-create my website using the Updraftplus backup files, I failed in doing so.
Can you tell me of a good way to cehck whether backup files can be used to re-create original website?
I look foward to hearin from you.

Hi David,
very interesting, it seems that my version of Apaa che2 does not pickup the default charset setting.
pffff
Ill update and see if that changes it finaly

beltex on "[Plugin: UpdraftPlus Backup and Restoration] encoding issues"
While reading on it seems that iso-8859-1 is the standard for Apache and actualy should not make that much difference in general serving of websites. Encodings for websites are stated in the headers if im correct, so running with iso-8859-1 may work fine and even your plugin may run fine, until of course u would have my user-case.
AddDefaultCharset should only be used when all of the text resources to which it applies are known to be in that character encoding and it is too inconvenient to label their charset individually. (Apache docs)
Its not a user-case that occurs a lot but it might still be nice to not be depending on that setting for such an important plugin.
I actually dont understand how the zip binary uses the charset of Apache, or is that because its apache user that uses the zip binary?
Thats just my thought though, would u know of an other way to tell zip about the encoding? Could i do smth with the user running apache that would make it work?
I tried updating Apache but it still uses iso-8859-1 by default and it can not be overided

When I try to restore the backup files through an installed plugin on local host, it comes with following message:

I'm getting the same error, is there a solution to this?

If there are connection errors, then UpdraftPlus retries; just wait for it to do so.

Hi,
Please can you provide a link to your restoration log file for the problematic restore? (You can get it from the directory wp-content/updraft).
It'll be too long to paste into the forum here, but you can download it to your computer, and share it with Dropbox, or paste it in pastebin.com, or any similar service, and post the link here.
Is the backup set from a different site that the one you're restoring on? Were any warnings shown prior to the final confirm that you wanted to go ahead with a restore operation?
Best wishes,
David

Thanks, David. I did see that it was retrying, but never was able to complete. In my settings, it used to say that it was connected and had my name on there, that is not the case anymore. When I click the link to try and reconnect it, I get that same error after about 20 seconds of trying to connect.
Does the version of PHP that I'm using have anything to do with this? Think I'm using 5.5.

mouschi on "[Plugin: UpdraftPlus Backup and Restoration] Restoring after white screen from upgrade or even hack?"
I've had a heck of a time with my sites being hacked in wordpress over the past few months. It has been an absolute nightmare, so I'm seriously considering using this plugin. It sounds great! I do have a question though:
If my site gets the white screen of death due to an automatic wordpress update or an incompatible plugin, how do I restore? I would think that I wouldn't be able to get to the backup files to click a button to restore if I can't even get to the admin area.
Any help greatly appreciated, thanks!

Hi,
Sorry - I've been going down the wrong route. My test setups also have Apache running in LANG=C, and back up non-ASCII filenames without problem. So, it's not that.
How are you verifying that there's a problem... how are you able to confirm that it's the zip files themselves that have a problem, and not the program you're using to inspect the zips, or unzip the zips?

@pixelworker : you're saying that your web browser is having trouble contacting dropbox.com during the auth procedure?

According to the screenshot, in your localhost MySQL setup, you have the "InnoDB" MySQL engine disabled. That's not even possible on modern MySQL versions - see https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/innodb-turning-off.html - current MySQL versions remove the ability to do that, even if you want to.
You need to remove the part of your MySQL configuration that disables InnoDB, and restart MySQL.

Thanks David - looking for an answer w/out going through a massive page to maybe find what I'm looking for though if possible :)
