From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041001 Firefox/0.10.1 Description of problem: Swat shows unreadable messages on Japanese environment (ja_JP.UTF-8). Top page is good. But all other pages (global, shares, etc.) are unreadable. I tried all Japanese encodings (UTF-8, Shift_JIS, EUC-JP, ISO-2022-JP), but no encoding made them readable. adding 'display charset = UTF-8' to global section of /etc/samba/smb.conf seems to solve this problem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): samba-swat-3.0.7-2.FC2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install FC2 with ja_JP.UTF-8 environment 2. enable swat on service conf 3. access http://localhost:901/globals with web browser which support Japanese. Actual Results: unreadable buttons, comments, etc on the page. Expected Results: readable page. see image: http://www.horobi.com/bugs/swat.png Additional info:
You should also file this upstream at https://bugzilla.samba.org
I'm not sure this is samba's bug. It maybe packaging problem. So I don't submit this to samba.org at this time.
Try uninstalling samba*3.0.7-2.FC2*.rpm, and install the Fedora RPMs from www.samba.org (I see them at http://us3.samba.org/samba/ftp/Binary_Packages/Fedora/RPMS/i386/core/2/ but you may get a different (faster) mirror). Retry connecting to swat. If it still fails, the problem is definitely an upstream one that you should report to bugzilla.samba.org.
this was an upstream bug having been fixed in the meantime
