Dear All, I figured out the solution tonight. The attachment is UTF8 encoded when retrieved via rt show. I filtered it through tcs and it works now.
rt show ticket/59134/attachments/365295/content | tcs -f utf -t 8859-1 > $filenameTemp This gives me the binary file as it is retrieved from the web. There is a chance that this depends on the setting of your Postgres (client) and / or base operating system ... Best regards Tobias Heinz http://bayern.zentrumspartei.de Tobias Heinz schrieb:
Dear All, I am trying to retrieve an attachment (application/pdf binary file) from a ticket. I am using the rt command line interface. When opening the attachment from the web the file (PDF) is fine. rt show ticket/59134/attachments/365295/content rt show ticket/59134/attachments/365295/content > /tmp/test.pdf It gives me a file that is approx. 30% larger than the file itself. When looking at the file, the clear-text part appears to be fine. The pdf viewer tells me: "File corrupt" or "graphics can not be rendered". I have transferred the file via scp to a windows machine - same there. Tried to use different pdf viewers on unix - all abended with errors. Clicking the file using Download test.pf on the web rt in ticket 59134 frontend gives me a perfect error-free pdf .. Does the cli use any kind of encoding? How can I decode/transform the file? Thanks for any hint - God bless Tobias Heinz------------------------------------------------------------------------_______________________________________________ http://lists.bestpractical.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rt-users Community help: http://wiki.bestpractical.com Commercial support: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Discover RT's hidden secrets with RT Essentials from O'Reilly Media.
