In mvs 0.31, in get_server_page, at line 1240, the variable $headline
is encoded to utf-8 before the expected name of the page, $expected,
is compared to $headline. All is good.
However, in _upload_file, where the same comparison is takes place,
$headline was not encoded to utf-8 before hand. That throws an
exception, since $expected does not equal $headline (they actually do,
but one of the strings is in Unicode, while the other is not, so they
don't equal).
This bug may not seem as a big deal, but having the script throw
an exception where there is no reason to causes complication in my
code which uses _upload file.
The bug fix is simple, just add an Encode::encode("utf8"...
in the appropriate place in _upload file.
Cheers,
Oleg
