Title:
Bad characters in filenames prevent pages with files from displaying
Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
Confirmed
Bug description:
From https://mahara.org/interaction/forum/topic.php?id=5249
"One of our student users is experiencing a strange problem with
Mahara. Though she's been a user since 2010, this semester she is
suddenly unable to edit content on her pages.
She is able to display pages, but when she clicks edit, the page is
blank. Other pages give her the option to edit content, but will not
actually allow her to upload a file. When she attempts to do so, the
screen freezes up. She has attempted to upload directly to pages and
through the content section, but neither worked.
Her other pages let her upload pictures, but not files. We tried
having her create new pages, but the same issues arise."
...
"Our programmers were able to find the issue. Apparently the user had
some bad file names that contained bad chacters (in this case
quotation marks) that caused the error. We removed the bad characters
and things seem to be functioning normally."
