Hi,

I get a test failure of svnsync_tests.py 28: copy and reencode
non-UTF-8 svn:* props. The following error appears:

svnsync: E720087: Can't convert string from 'ISO-8859-3' to 'UTF-8':
svnsync: E720087: 2011-01-11T20:57:24.206641Z

See also fails.log in attachment.

This happens on 1.7.x as well as on trunk. On Windows XP (Visual C
Express 2008).

ISTR that this error is already there for quite some time, but I
didn't yet take the time to investigate further (and my build
environment was broken for some time). I guess it has
something to do
with r1084335, which introduced functionality to let
svnsync translate
properties that were not encoded in UTF-8.

Is anyone else seeing this? Any ideas?

I've also seen this on my VC6 build for beta3.
Didn't give it any attention then as it's "just a beta".
Would be nice if anyone have any clues to the reason.

Any of the other Windows devs seen this? If not, could it be a
difference in compiler or OS, or different set of dependencies?

Any idea what could be the cause, and what to do about it?

FYI, I used these dependencies:
Httpd 2.2.19
Apr 1.4.5 (as included with httpd)
Apr-Util 1.3.12 (as included with httpd)
Apr-Iconv 1.2.1 (as included with httpd)
Neon 0.29.6
OpenSSL 1.0.0d
Serf 1.0.0
SQLite 3.7.7.1
ZLib 1.2.5

Build environment: Visual C++ 2008 Express on Windows XP SP3.

Just for the record...here is my build environment and dependencies:
(I've seen this on beta3,rc1 and rc2, never built trunk and
previous betas)

for beta3 and rc1:
APR 1.4.5
APR-util 1.3.12
APR-Iconv 1.2.1
BDB 4.4.20  (4.8.30 for rc2)
libintl 0.14.1  (patched as supplied with svn 1.6.x dependencies)
Neon 0.28.3  (0.29.6 for rc2)
OpenSSL 0.9.8r (1.0.0d for rc2)
Serf 0.3.0 (1.0.0 for rc2)
sqlite 3.7.6.3 (3.7.7.1 for rc2)
zlib 1.2.5

for rc2 I've updated these:
BDB 4.8.30
Neon 0.29.6
OpenSSL 1.0.0d
Serf 1.0.0
sqlite 3.7.7.1

My build environment if WinXP SP3 fully patched, VisualStudio 6 sp 6,
Platform SDK Feb 2003 (latest for VS6)
Hmm, at least we're both running WinXP SP3, so maybe that has
something to do with it. Maybe WinXP somehow has less language / char
encoding / ... support installed by default, which causes this to
fail.

And now the good news: I was able to make the test succeed by enabling
"28593 (ISO 8859-3 Latin 3)" in the "Code page conversion tables" of
the OS'es "Regional and Language Options" (see Control Panel |
Regional and Language Options | Advanced).

So in summary: this is a local failure, which can be fixed by enabling
the right "Code page conversion table" in Windows. Nothing serious to
worry about.

Though it's still not nice that the absence of this setting causes the
test to fail, especially because it wasn't enabled by default (at
least on my system). Maybe someone on this list knows how to change
the test to make it more tolerant in this regard?

I can confirm this solution fixes the problem.
I think the Win-developers signing the rc2 release all use Windows
7, maybe it have more code pages installed by default.

I also took a quick look in the code and found the following
"suspicious" code in libsvn_subr\utf.c (line 303) in function
get_xlate_handle_node

#if defined(WIN32)
  apr_err = svn_subr__win32_xlate_open((win32_xlate_t **)&handle,
topage, frompage, pool);
#else
  apr_err = apr_xlate_open(&handle, topage, frompage, pool);
#endif

Why is Windows not using apr_iconv (if available) for this conversion?
(something "ivan" introduced in r865724)
I will try changing this and see if solves the problem.

/David


I just got a message from a user using my build pointing out this:

---
apr-iconv is unnecessary for a win32 subversion since 1.5.0
See this 
thread:http://subversion.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=462&dsMessageId=889291

I guess he's right.

Reading on Wikipedia about ISO 8859-3 it's only used for Meltese and
Esperanto, two quite small languages.  Maybe changing the used code
page in the test suite to some more widely used code page, like ISO
8859-1 or -15 will make the problem much smaller.

+1, is -15 installed by default on your system?
Yes "Codepage 28605 ISO 8859-15 Latin 9" is installed by default, on both XP SP3 x86 and on x64 (booth English version with Swedish localization).
