Filename encoding broken after unzip on windows
- by flammi88
I zipped a directory on my linux server. Many files in the directory have german umlauts in their filename. The filesystem is ext3 and the system locale is set to de_DE.utf8.
I used the following command to create the zip file:
zip -r somezip.zip somefolder/
I transfered this file via WinSCP to my windows laptop and unzipped it. The issue: All filenames with german umlauts are broken. On my linux server the filenames are displayed correctly.
I assume that I made a mistake when i created the zip file.
Has someone any ideas how i can perserve the right filename encoding when I zip the files with the zip command on linux?
