Re: [Orgmode] Bug: org-mobile "Bad file encoding" [6.33trans]

I added the following lines (to my ~/.emacs file), as suggested by Richard and they work immediately.

For what it's worth, I am running on Mac OS X 10.5.8 on an Intel MacBook, and I've had it for a few years and tweaked any number of little things. This may be a 'default' problem, but it might also be just because I've copied old customization buffers forward from other machines.

Thanks, Richard, for the tip, and thanks to all the rest of you for the org-mode community.

Hi Ben,

I'm replying off-list because I'm not sure this is the answer, but:

(prefer-coding-system       'utf-8)
(set-default-coding-systems 'utf-8)
(set-terminal-coding-system 'utf-8)
(set-keyboard-coding-system 'utf-8)
(setq default-buffer-file-coding-system 'utf-8)

Between that mess of options, it seems that you be able to have your files default to UTF-8 (which is the encoding MobileOrg is looking for).

If this works for you, would please let the list know so the solution is archived? I'll also update the website with the appropriate details.

Thanks!
Richard

Thanks for org-mode and MobileOrg!  I'm very grateful for all the
helpful hints I've seen on the mailing list too.

I an have a small problem with MobileOrg.  After doing an
org-mobile-push and syncing the results to the iPod touch, the
agendas.org file doesn't appear on the iPod. Instead, it appears as if the only heading is "Bad file encoding" and the body text is "Unable to
detect file encoding, please re-save this file using the proper
encoding.

At first I thought it was because I've got things like the
pounds-sterling, t-with-a-comma, a-with-breve, and i-with-circumflex
characters in my text (some of which contains Romanian, hence the
especially odd t-with-a-comma). But I'm pretty sure I've expunged those characters from my files, and anyway, the agendas.org file should only
contain the characters that my original org files contain.

So, I'm happy enough to use the proper encoding, but I don't know what that is, and I don't save the adgendas.org file myself: org-mobile- push
must do that on my behalf.

If it is relevant, I am using a 5dollarhosting.com website for my webdav server, not my local machine, so I don't have complete control over the
webserver configuration.

I'm stumped as to what I should try next. Any pointers will be
appreciated,

Ben Alexander
