Mantis Bug Tracker - Forums

I want to note some information in the configuration file, the notes want accented characters (Vietnamese language).
However, an error is occurring while browsing the mantis pages.

If storing the configuration file with encoding as UTF-8, when browsing mantis pages, you will get a page with the message "Possible Whitespace/Error in Configuration File - Aborting. Output so far follows: string(3) """

If you store the configuration file with Unicode encoding, when browsing mantis pages, you will get a blank page.

Thanks!

You have to store as UTF-8 without BOM.

Thanks for atrol!
Sorry, what is "BOM"?
As I mentioned, if storing with Encoding as UTF-8, will result in error "Possible Whitespace/Error in Configuration File - Aborting. Output so far follows: string(3) """.
And, I want to need to make notes in Vietnamese language.

Does your config_inc.php contain a closing PHP tag "?>" ?
If yes, remove it, as there might exist some content after it.

Thanks for atrol!
No, my config_inc.php configuration file does not contain the closing "?>" tag.
Current ends with #$g_show_detailed_errors = ON;
Only save as with ANSI encoding will work.
PS:
- OS: Window Server 2019 Standard Evaluation.
- AppServer 9.3.0.

So you ensured that the file is stored without BOM?
Can you post the file (after removing passwords, ...)?

Yes, the config file is like this!

Your file is UTF-16 with BOM.
I asked you to try UTF-8 without BOM.
E.g. you could use Notepad++ to view / convert / store in another format.

Thank you so much atrol!
I use Notepad++ which solved the problem.
