Closing bug, since tripwire hasn't been shipped for so long, only in Legacy releases. |
Description of problem: My locale is fr_FR.UTF-8. When there is an utf-8 non ascii character in a report, tripwire --update fails with Interactive Update failed. ### Error: Report file could not be parsed. Report may be corrupt. ### Exiting... The following line appears in the report and that seems to be the culprit to me: 15. File system error. Filename: /var/lock/subsys/smb Aucun fichier ou répertoire de ce type Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): I believe this is applicable to all the tripwire releases How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. set the locale such that an accented letter appear in an error message from the glibc, and make a tripwire policy file such that that message appears in the report. It is quite easy to do that for french, a fresh install of tripwire should be enough. 2. run tripwire --check to generate a report 3. run tripwire --update -r /var/lib/tripwire/report/report_file_name Accept the changes (:wq if vi is your editor). Actual results: [root@zeus root]# tripwire --update -r /var/lib/tripwire/report/zeus-20030623-194456.twr Interactive Update failed. ### Error: Report file could not be parsed. Report may be corrupt. ### Exiting... Expected results: Please enter your local passphrase: Wrote database file: /var/lib/tripwire/zeus.twd Additional info: If I revert to a C locale, it works well: [root@zeus root]# export LANG=C; tripwire --update -r /var/lib/tripwire/report/ zeus-20030623-194456.twr Please enter your local passphrase: Wrote database file: /var/lib/tripwire/zeus.twd In that case, in the report there is: 15. File system error. Filename: /var/lock/subsys/smb Aucun fichier ou r\xc3\xa9pertoire de ce type i.e. the hexadecimal representation of an e acute (\xc3\xa9) instead of the e acute itself (é).
