Error moving completed download

[lrusak]

Whenever a download finishes they seem to randomly fail and the download disappears from all folders.
This occurs when using the develop branch.

Exception in thread Thread-2:

I suspect that you have a file system that supports only 8bit ASCII in file names.
Is this true?
The u'u\2013' character is the "long dash", which is not represented in any of the 8bit ASCII tables.

It could also be a bug in the Python library, because the os.path.exists() function should be able to handle Unicode.

[shypike]

Which version of SABnzbd are you using?
0.7.x does not support Unicode, only the still-in-Alpha 0.8.0 does.

[lrusak]

I am using the develop branch so 0.8.x
This is running on a zfs filesystem, so I'm not sure what it supports.

[shypike]

It's important that Python knows how the file system is set up.
Read this for some more info: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2076708/python-os-stat-and-unicode-file-names
Especially the first answer is important.

Thanks for the hints, I got it working now
