Description

I have a little problem with Upload fulcrum service.
It seems that the Commons.FileUpload component used by Upload service has some problems with special characters in Filenames.

This means that in windows the filename is garbled when you try to attach a file with special characters, while, on Linux, you simply can't retrieve the files you've attached

The solution for the problem is to use the setHeaderEncoding accordingly to your configuration
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/fileupload/apidocs/org/apache/commons/fileupload/FileUploadBase.html#setHeaderEncoding()
Unfortunately, the Upload fulcrum service doesn't expose such parameter and that doesn't allow me to solve the problem.

I've prepared a little patch that would expose such a parameter so that it can be configured.

Scarab issue FULS12 was raised by Fabio Insaccanebbia (insac at insac dot com).

Fabio also attached a file with a special character in the filename - I did not transfer this across.
