I have encountered the same problem with Slovak songs. We use characters like ščťžýá that are not part of ASCII (maybe they are part of EASCII- but i am not sure). The program's error messages are here:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/openlp/core/ui/thememanager.py", line 452, in onImportTheme self.unzipTheme(file, self.path) File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/openlp/core/ui/thememanager.py", line 540, in unzipTheme zip = zipfile.ZipFile(filename) File "/usr/lib/python2.6/zipfile.py", line 696, in __init__ self._GetContents() File "/usr/lib/python2.6/zipfile.py", line 716, in _GetContents self._RealGetContents() File "/usr/lib/python2.6/zipfile.py", line 728, in _RealGetContents raise BadZipfile, "File is not a zip file" BadZipfile: File is not a zip file -- OpenLP1.x database fails to import in 1.9.3 with character issues https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/652380 You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenLP Core, which is subscribed to OpenLP.
