oc-1910 - ISO8859 encoded text files don't open in web GUI

[msrex]

From http://bugs.owncloud.org/thebuggenie/owncloud/issues/oc-1910

Confirmed with stable45. What I see is that the texteditor is opened, but there is nothing in there. I can edit a blank file.

Description:
If a text file is encoded in ISO8859 charset, it will not open in the Web Interface of Own Cloud. With Fire Fox I get a blank page and with Chrome I get 'null' as file content.

There is no problem if the file is opened through webdav

Owncloud version is 4.0.7

Reproduction steps:
Just create an ISO8859 text file with webdav and try to open it in the GUI

afaik this is fixed in git master and will be rolled out with 4.5

@tpn: am I right? Can we backport this to 4.0?

I just have installed OC 4.5-rc2 and I can't edit ISO8859 text files: when I clic on this file, nothing appears. It works fine if the file is not in ISO8859 format

Looks like a issue with mimetype detection. The editor is not even being passed the file to open.

Can you verify if this still exists with the upcoming 4.5.7? Should be fixed

Just installed 4.5.6. A plain text file uploaded from Windows displays up until the first single quote in the document.

@m-bruce I’m closing this bug because it has been inactive for a few months. This probably means it’s not reproducible or it has been fixed in a newer version.

Please reopen if the error still persists with ownCloud 5.0.9 (the latest stable version) and then please use the issue template. You an also contribute directly by providing a patch – see the developer manual. :)

Thank you!
