Odd character in stdout

For some reason I have the French a with an accent randomly appearing in my console output and it's screwing things up. I don't have any other locale set other than en_us.UTF8 so I don't know what the problem is.
Here's some examples:
[bran@ra ~]$ status mysqld
mysqld.service - MariaDB database server
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/mysqld.service; enabled)
Active: activating (start-post) (Result: exit-code) since Thu 2013-05-09 13:05:28 EDT; 12s ago
Process: 10776 ExecStart=/usr/bin/mysqld --pid-file=/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE)
Control: 10777 (mysqld-post)
CGroup: name=systemd:/system/mysqld.service
ââcontrol
ââ10777 /bin/sh /usr/bin/mysqld-post
ââ10901 sleep 1
[bran@ra ~]$ sudo chown -R mysql:mysql /var/log/mysql
chown: cannot access â/var/log/mysqlâ: No such file or directory
It seems like it only happens via SSH but I'm not entirely sure of that. I'm connecting from an Arch box to an Arch box (and actually to another Arch via one, using it as a "jump box") and it's happened on both of the boxes that I've SSH'd into, yet it doesn't happen on any of them locally. I couldn't really find anything odd in the SSH config files either.
Edit: looks like it may be something in my .bashrc or specific to my user bran because I just switched to the root account and tried the chown command posted above and it worked as expected. Odd.

Since you're English user you probably don't need to set the font, but just to rule that out try to "setfont lat2-16" and "loadkeys us" and then checking for those odd characters.
If that fixes it then make a file:
/etc/vconsole.conf:
KEYMAP=us
FONT=lat2-16
Also, make sure you are using UTF-8 compatible terminal when connecting to ssh (I should probably mention that first...).

  • Odd character sizing issue

    I'm having an issue with some odd character sizing (ID cs6). The font I'm using is Avenir Next Condensed Demi Bold (although this issue is happening with other font weights within the same family). The image below shows the problem, the u is slighly larger than the other characters. Sometimes this goes away on-screen depending on how close I zoom in, but the real problem is that it's printing slightly larger too. It's the same paragraph style, and I don't have any character styles applied... any ideas on what is going on here, and more crucially, how to fix this?  Thanks kindly in advance for any help with this.

    Does this happen in other applications? How about AI, Word, LibreOffice, that sort of thing. Do you have another computer with Avenir installed you can test the font on?

  • Odd character being picked in the URL while logging in to IC Web

    Hi,
    Need some help.
    While logging in to the IC Web application (Z application: ZCRM_IC), as seen in HTTP anlalyzer we find an odd character is
    appended into the URL string. Logging on doesn't cause issues, but the extrenal system scripts monitoring the logon are failing
    due to this character. The odd characteris very well visible under the Redirect URL column in the HTTP Analyzer.
    It appears to me as if the URLs maintained in the SICF transaction for the service ZCRM_IC for the Redirect URL (found under the 'Log on error' tab is somehow responsible for this since I do not see anything in the custom code that is causing this.
    Can anyone please help me on this. IF needed I can send the .xml file that I collected from the HTTP Analyzer for better clarity on this.

  • Odd character generation in the payload from the R/3 side to PI server

    Dear Experts,
           The scenario is an integration from R/3 -PI- Webserver (Ext CRM server). An ABAP report is executed on the R/3 side which in turn invokes the RFC which is connected to PI server through RFC Adapter. On the receiving side the SOAP Adapter is used for connecting the External web server. Now when ABAP Report is executed on R/3 server it generates a transaction which does not gives error but the payload generated from the R/3 side is incorrect. When we check it on the PI server using the SXMB_MONI transaction, we can clearly see the odd characters like ㄲ㠸㈰㠺㔴㘱㌺ which is defined as string in the inbound message payload.ie In the payload looks like as given below. 
    <ns1:string>??㠸㈰㠺㔴㘱㌺</ns1:string>
    Kindly advice on how to overcome such problem. Is there any setting which needs to be done on the R/3 side or on the PI server side pls let us know.
    Thanking You
    With Kind Regards
    Sylvester

    Hi,
    You can change the encoding in your SOAP Adapter ...

  • Odd character in shared folder name

    Hi all,
    i have a USB HD connected to my airport extreme.  I havent seen this before, but i just created a new folder on that shared drive.  When i view the contents of that drive in finder, the name of that particular folder has what appears to be a square with a X in it.  Does anyone know what this characher is?
    thanks

    That is an illegal character as is the reverse slash. Stick with underscores and alpha-numerics for filenames.

  • Character Mystery

    I originally posted this in the Illustrator forum, but it's probably more appropriate here.
    A web programmer friend asked for some help with a very odd character problem he's having with an XML file. There is a character within the file that is causing a parsing problem. I copied the line into Illustrator thinking that the glyphs panel would reveal what it is. It doesn't. The character appears either as a box or as a diamond with a question mark in it. When I highlight the character, nothing shows up for the glyph. Weirder yet, if I change the font for the entire line of text, the character doesn't change. Anyone have any idea on how to figure out what this thing is? This is the text (I don't know whether passing it through to the forum will change or remove it, but it's the character after the Rn).
    Rn�_Mapk1 Control
    The forum software converts it to an HTML entity, one I believe means 'out of range'. The following is an attempt to paste in the offending character without quoting it:
    Rn�_Mapk1 Control
    I've been trying to GREP the character in ID, but can't even paste it into any field. It's like the character doesn't really exist, but yet I can see it in the text.

    >If you know the unicode, you can search for any character in regular mode (enter as hex: "<fffd>") or in grep mode (as escaped hex: "\x{fffd}"). <br /><br />That's just it: I don't know and can't seem to extract the unicode for it. I tried copying and pasting into different dialogs, but nothing appears when I paste. I did find out that the original text came out of an SAP system in Germany, but that hasn't really helped track down what the weird character is. There are two of them, presumably identical, in this particular file.<br /><br />I did try Kenneth Benson's suggestion to export it as tagged text, but the tagged text either shows a square, FFFD, or 0xFFFD. My real goal here is to find out what the character is so that we can tell the people creating it, "Don't do that". They're not being much help in figuring it out. There is going to be a lot more of this in the future, which is why I'm trying to find out what the character is.

  • Invalid character in XML

    Hi,
    I'm trying to parse this public comment feed, which had been working until recently -
    http://www.ntia.doc.gov/broadbandgrants/btopcomments.xml
    - when I started getting this error -
    "An error occured while Parsing an XML document. An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x14) was found in the element content of the document."
    I'm trying to strip out the character using this replace command, but it doesn't seem to be working.
    XMLText = rereplace(XMLText, chr(14),"","ALL");
    Any ideas?
    thanks!

    EDIT: You can ignore this one, I think! I was typing my response and didn't see your recent post until after I submitted. I'll leave it in case the curly quote details help at all.
    Hi, Wingo,
    I was able to get the feed to parse without the Base64 sections but I think of that more as a trouble-shooting step than a solution because I wanted to see if there was an odd character (or more) in these elements.
    A perusal skimmed the ATOM documents this morning related to Base64 (if I recall from reading the feed, it was an ATOM feed and not an RSS feed) at http://www.atomenabled.org/developers/syndication/atom-format-spec.php, indicates there should not be any issues with Base64 content in the feed.
    I also tested the feed with a PHP ATOM parser this morning. I just wanted to see if another server-side language could do it. Nope! PHP threw an invalid character at line 1243. Of course, the line number PHP/ColdFusion see does not necessarily match what we see when we copy the XML into a new file.
    After testing the feed with PHP, I downloaded the feed XML again (in case it was updated since I messed with it the other day) and started to check in the area around this line number. I saw something of potential interest: a lot of instances of what I think are curly quotes in the document.
    Search for the test "inherently competing definitions of". Immediately following the word "of " are two funny symbols and then the words 'public interest'. If looks almost like someone had curly quotes around these words and, I believe, curly quotes can cause issues in XML parsing. A document search for this 'character' revealed many of them, all in places that look like a curly quote would go (they were typically in long blocks of text.
    Sorry not to be of more help but maybe this (the curly quotes) will get things rolling...

  • Terminal - character spacing

    Hello,
    Leopard has changed my carefully arranged terminal windows and now they overlap.
    No problem, I thought, there is a character spacing option to correct this.
    If the multiplier is set to 0.99, the windows are far too wide.
    If the multiplier is set to 0.98, the windows are far too narrow.
    Well, anything in-between (e.g. 0.988) reverts to 0.99 :-[
    Does anyone know a workaround?
    Thank you,

  • Tab 7.0 Update Issues / Findings

    * Update Notice received/Performed 11/3 @ 9:30pm
    - Had two browser windows active, something already in 'Copy' memory, went to Copy again and it closed all the browser windows
    - Scrolling is smoother but alittle more touchy.   If a web page has an embede video in it, the video window lags way behind the scrolling until you release your finger, making it difficult to postion the page because the video window is blocking your view.
    Additionally, similar delays occur on other sites that have layered graphics.  You can see a good example of this problem on this site  www.govoutreach.com
    Another bad example I just ran into is scrolling an applications settings menu, All te characters hung & strechted when trying to scroll up or down.  Took the screen about 5 seconds to clear up.  App is called Marine Weather, and the problem occurs when modifying layer options of the mapping.  I've notified the developer to double check w/them as well.  I also checked the problem against Google's Layers, but nothing occured there.
    - After update, Charging via usb, Battery indicator in upper-right showed a negitive sign.  Also...  Info/Status details describe current as 'Decharging'  What is occuring?
    - Sometimes the Task Manager lags abit when starting up
    - Screen Off... When plugging in the charger, the screen would come back on, but then, go back off if you didn't enter your password (about 5 seconds or so).  But after the update, the screen stays on, and now requires you to press th power button to make it sleep.  On the same note, when the battery fully charges, the screen comes on (due to notification), but doesn't return to its off state.
    - Typing Text...  When typing/using the (period,comma,question) button, each depression leaves an odd looking character until you press the space bar, which the reveals the true character selected.  Additionally, if you touch the button, say for a period, wait a few seconds, then the odd character would go away, then the peroid would appear.  The odd looking character appears like a period with a small dash under it.  This issue makes it difficult when tapping to select, as your not able to see the true character until you spacebar away, or wait a few seconds before continuing to type.
    - I'm experiencing more browser/application aborts as days pass.
    - The browser does'nt respond as smooth as before the update.  Slight jerkyness, Longer pauses before another actin occurs such as opening another browser window from clicking on a link.
    - The New Highlighter/Text Selector w/the pop-up options is erratic, and won't let you select text accurately.  It wants to jump to the left margine of a given paragraph, and trying to drag it back won't work sometimes, it still wants to snap back to the left.
    - I'm getting the feeling my battery is draining alittle sooner?  Does this have anything todo with the Decharging I noticed occuring after the update?
    - First wakeup in the morning (from sleep state), seems to take longer for screen to become active, and to turn landscape mode
    - Unless I'm missing a setting on my side, I've also noticed I ha n't been getting notifications  for applications I have installed.  I have to go into the Android Market, then view 'My Apps' to see if there are any updates.
    - Built-in Calendar... Making changes to the settings, Time, you cannot modify the time zone without select Locking the time zone first, backing out of settings, going back in, only then will the time zone list be available to edit. / Also, option to add/delete email accounts is missing.
    - Settings > Accounts & Sync, Ability to turn individual accounts is missing
    - Week-plus of use since update.  Getting less battery time over 8 hour period than before.
    - Using Google Mapping, taking much longer than before to map out area, espeicially with Traffic activated.
    ---END  11/14/2011
    If I can be of any further assistance or Beta testing, please contact me via my email on account.

    If I can add another problem to the list: after the last update, my Tab is no longer able to access WiFi via my Samsung laptop running Windows 7 (I was able to, and did daily, before the update). Nothing has been touched on the laptop. Before, I had been so relieved to be able to tether onto my WiFi at home through my laptop because without it, my Tab will not connect to my Belkin wireless router, no matter what channel, what encryption method (or no encryption) used - **bleep** ANNOYING!  Now, neither will work.  I thought updates were supposed to fix things (like not being able to connect to Belkin routers), not make them worse! 
    Please don't respond saying something is not set up right on my end. The Belkin issue is well documented on blogs throughout the internet, and it has never been resolved.  The only thing that changed for me was the firmware on the Tab - no other settings were touched, although after not being able to connect, I did try numerous variations to try to get it to connect again.  Has Verizon/Samsung just given up on on the 7" (Belkin issue not being resolved, no Gingerbread...)?  I haven't seen any EOL notice for it, so this flakey WiFi issue needs to be resolved.

  • Warning message in RSA6

    Hello Experts,
    In rsa6 when I transport the Data source, iam facing the below message.... ignored the warning transported and replicated in BI system but its not reflected in BI system...help me out.
    The even-numbered length of the DEC field D_UNITS can lead to problems
    Message no. R8569
    Diagnosis
    You want to use the field D_UNITS in the extract structure for DataSource 0CFM_DELTA_POSITIONS. This field has a field of type 'DEC' (or 'CURR' or 'QUAN') with an even number of characters.
    This can create problems since the length resulting from calculations in ABAP (for example, in extractors or Customer Exits for extraction) is too large to be inserted in the database later (PSA in BW), causing a short dump.
    Procedure
    This warning is only relevant when the maximum length of this field is exceeded during extraction, for example when the field is expanded in the Customer Exit through a calculation.
    More information and a remedy can be found in SAP Note 641744.

    Hi KV........
    Hav u checked the correct Application component after Replication..........is it popping any error message...........After replication u hav to activate the Transfer rules using the program : RS_TRANSTRU_ACTIVATE_ALL ...........Warning cannot be the reason........as per my understanding........First go to RSA1 >> go to source system >> Right click on the desired source system >> Display datasource tree >> then go to the correct Application Component >> Then right click >> Replicate metadata........
    Hav u checked the SAP Note 641744..........given in the Error message.......For ur reference.......
    Symptom
    The following symptoms can occur:
    1a: When you transfer a DataSource from the Business Content, a warning is displayed, stating that the even numbered length of the DEC field <Fieldname> can cause problems (message: R8 569).
    1b: When you generate DataSources using transaction RSO2, the warning R8 569 is issued.
    2: When you load extracted data to the PSA, a short dump 'DBIF_RSQL_SQL_ERROR' is generated. (In this case, the above message appears if the DataSource is checked in the source system in transaction RSA6.)
    Other terms
    OLTP, extractor, data extraction, DataSource, service API, SAPI, S-API
    R8569, ORA1438,
    Reason and Prerequisites
    The DataSource contains fields of the 'DEC' DDIC type (also:'CURR' or 'QUAN') with an exact-number-of-places.
    You should only expect problems if calculations are made with the above field types using the value read by the database.
    Example:
    The value '9999' is read by the database from a DEC field of length 4.
    At runtime, this is treated as an internal ABAP type 'P' (length 3) that can, however, have the maximum value '99999'.If the read value is now increased by an arithmetic operation - for example, by adding '1' - the resulting value '10000' cannot be written to the PSA that was also generated on the basis of the DEC field of the extract structure with a length of 4.
    Result: A short dump 'DBIF_RSQL_SQL_ERROR', 'CX_SY_OPEN_SQL_DB', is issued when you write to the PSA in BW using the INSERT_ODS routine.
    Solution
    If the field is not manipulated in the customer exit or elsewhere, no processing is required.
    If you change the field, the following possible solutions are available:
    You can make sure that the number of the characters does not increase after the manipulation.
    If you can change the extract structure of the DataSource without affecting other scenarios (for example, if it was generated in transaction RSO2), you can increase the length of the DEC field (or CURR, QUAN) there to the next odd character (in the example above: from DEC 4 on DEC 5).
    If neither of these solutions are possible, you can use a customer append that contains a relevant DEC field (or CURR, QUAN) with the next highest odd length. This can be used for the result of the calculations. This means that you do not have to manipulate the previous field.
    Regards,
    Debjani.........

  • 2LIS_04_P_MATNR - Prob in activating the Datasource in R/3

    Hello,
    I am trying to activate datasource 2LIS_04_P_MATNR in r/3 in Tcode : rsa6/rsa5  and I am getting a warning that says
    The even-numbered length of the DEC field I_DLZ_EX can lead to problems
    I serached and found that note : 641744 is applicable.
    The solution in the note says that there are 3 options to rectify this error as below:
    If the field is not manipulated in the customer exit or elsewhere, no processing is required.
    If you change the field, the following possible solutions are available:
    You can make sure that the number of the characters does not increase after the manipulation.
    If you can change the extract structure of the DataSource without affecting other scenarios (for example, if it was generated in transaction RSO2), you can increase the length of the DEC field (or CURR, QUAN) there to the next odd character (in the example above: from DEC 4 on DEC 5).
    If neither of these solutions are possible, you can use a customer append that contains a relevant DEC field (or CURR, QUAN) with the next highest odd length. This can be used for the result of the calculations. This means that you do not have to manipulate the previous field.
    I am opting the 3rd option i.e. to use an append structure with a field QUAN(in my case) that has next highest odd length
    I am using the field BDMNG(length 13) from table RESB. The feild mentioned in the warning have length 12.
    The problem is still occuring.
    Am I able to understand the note correctly or am I missing something?
    Can anyone help here?

    Thanks Deva. I ignored the warning and went ahead with the enhancement.
    After the activation of datasource I deleted and filled the setup tables, but the NPRT log showed 0 records.
    Then after reading few threads at SCN I came to a conculsion that my setup table is refering to view CAUFV which does not contain data for order category AUTYP 10(PP Production Order) and therefore the data extracted is 0.
    There was a thread mentioning the same problem that said (steps to fill the setup tables for 2LIS_04_PECOMP(Repetitive manufacturing Component view)) that the solution was to run OLIFBW Tcode after completing OLI4BW setup. So i did the same. But still my NPRT log still shows 0 records.
    Also I checked AUFK table. It does not contain any data for AUTYP 10.
    Please advise what should be the correct way to solve this.

  • Can no longer connect to ASA 5505 (serial or ssh)

    I have an ASA 5505 running software version 8.0(4) that I picked up a while back. I had just finished configuring it via the serial console. I confirmed that DHCP addresses we're being pushed out on the VLANs, made a couple of minor tweaks, and confirmed that I could ssh into the ASA on the appropriate VLAN. After that I issued a write to save the config and took the firewall downstairs to replace my cheap little router.
    After hooking it up, I started checking my machines only to discover that none of the machines on any of the vlans were getting IP addresses. I assigned a static IP on the VLAN with management access but I still couldn't connect to it. A packet capture showed zero traffic coming from the ASA. I grabbed the ASA and hooked it back up via a serial console but now I can no longer connect to it. The power & status lights are on. Plugging in cables turns the link lights on in front and back and they flash indicating activity. When I unplug the ASA I see a single odd character show up in putty over the serial connection.
    I'm out of ideas. Is there anything else I can do?
    Thanks.

    Step three of the password recovery option says, "During the startup messages, press the Escape key when prompted to enter ROMMON," but that pre-supposes that I'm seeing some output on the serial console. I'm seeing nothing at all (until I turn off the ASA then I see a single odd character).
    Despite not seeing the usual console output, I've tried hitting repeatedly Escape as indicated but I'm still not getting any output. I've even tried other baud rates.
    Thank you for the suggestion. Other ideas?

  • Port Forwarding on Home Hub 5 not working

    Hi,
    Is anybody else having problems getting ports to forward on their Home Hub or Home Hub 5?
    I am a new BT customer, less than a week infact and BT have been utterly hopeless in getting this resolved. All they do is send me instructions for port forwarding on a homehub which I do not need and tell me that i need to pay for their tech support to investigate it further which is freaking ridiculous considering port forwarding is an essential part of any router and this router is brand new, less than a week old. (Do BMW sell you a car and then refuse to take responsibility for a broken engine?)
    My other option is buying an ADSL 802.11ac router for £150 which out of principle, i dont think i should have to do. One of the reasons i came to BT in the first place was because the homehub is supposed to be one of the best free provider supplied routers around. 
    Please only reply to this if you know what you are talking about or have experienced this same issue yourselves. I reiterate that I have not missed any configuration steps on my part and this is a case of the homehub simply not working as it is designed.
    Scenario:
    I like to have remote desktop access to my home computer from external networks. I do not use 3rd party software such as 'log me in' or 'team viewer', I like to use Microsoft Remote desktop and had been doing so for years with my Sky broadband until last week.
    I have dynamic DNS running on my machine which updates my constantly changing external IP to the dns server so dont worry about that, thats all good.
    I have correctly set up the forwarding of TCP 3389 to the static I.P of my home desktop on the homehub (and rebooted and or factory reset several times)
    Result:
    Nothing. The homehub displays as though it has forwarded the ports yet i am still unable to remote in from an external network. The port shows as closed when i run a port scanner.
    The same goes for other ports I have tried to open. For example, my Xbox One.
    BT are sending me out a replacement Hub to try but I fear that this will have the same result as i have seen a few other people post with the same issues.
    If anybody has experienced and or resolved this, please let me know and i will be forever grateful
    Thank you

    When you do a major network revision always reset the TC to factory and start over.. it simply remembers too much of the last setup.
    Plug WAN TC into the HH5 and run through the airport utility again. The TC must go into bridge mode. It then should work fine, but I recommend particularly with Mavericks you use strict naming.
    Not apple names.. long, loose and loopy.
    Names that are short, 2-10 characters is plenty but make an upper limit of 20.
    No spaces..
    Pure alphanumeric.. no apostrophe or any other odd character.

    Trailer.fieldFixedLengths     1,1,8
    Trailer.fieldNames     a,b,c
    Trailer.keyFieldValue     T
    ignoreRecordsetName     true
    In SXMB_MONI, I get the payload with just the Header and Trailer and not the detail records, even though my file has so many records in it.I m pretty sure, this happens because of my Detail.fieldSeparator parameter.
    Can anyone please help me with this?What is the correct value for this parameter?
    Thanks a lot in advance!

    first of all make sure with a hex editor that the hex code of the delimiter sign is really 05. This is an odd character, as the normal tab is hex 09.
    when you have confimred it, check online help for file adapter config for the correct entry of hex codes. I think it is something like '0x05',
