Weird Characters in Reply Emails
April 20, 2009, 03:05:49 pm
We are getting some weird characters in email replies. I know there was a previous post on this issue (http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php?topic=6357.0), but it was supposed to be fixed on 2.2. We are on Joomla 1.5.8 and CiviCRM 2.2.beta2 but the problem still exists.

Here are some samples:

What Oakland area did your group work in for Earth Day? I emailed you las=
t week about one of your staff working with our nonprofit's website. Our =
National Tap Celebration is next month. Will this be possible?

Is there anything that can be done about this?

Thank you in advance.

I just upgraded to 2.2 and I'm having a new problem. The weird characters are gone but now the report on my mailings is not working. When I click on "Report," here is the error I get:

Quote
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare __autoload() (previously declared in /home8/whatnowa/public_html/libraries/loader.php:159) in /home8/whatnowa/public_html/administrator/components/com_civicrm/civicrm/packages/ezc/Base/src/ezc_bootstrap.php on line 38

PLEASE help!

Thank you.

I just realized something. I am sure I had 2.2.beta2 as I checked before I submitted my very first post. Now (after upgrade to 2.2.2 from here: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=177914&package_id=205038&release_id=673168), in the footer of the CiviCRM Home Page is says that I'm running "Powered by CiviCRM 2.2.alpha1."

http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Upgrade+Joomla+Sites+to+2.2

specifically step 4

can you try following the steps for "reset session" and see if that helps

This is the error I get on step four:

Quote
Sorry. A non-recoverable error has occurred.

Database check failed - it looks like you have already upgraded to the latest version (v2.2) of the database.

Return to home page.

Since it says "you have already upgraded to the latest version," I figured everything is okay.

Thanks

I am ashamed to post this reply. I was stupidly installing an old version (2.2.alpha1) that was sitting on my host instead of the new version (2.2.2). Everything checked out smoothly after I realized this and I'm really sorry to bug some of you with this stupid mistake, especially lobo.

Thanks
