Title: Message
Hello Jorge,
 
You're most certainly correct. The code page in use in Brazil probably is an ISO-LATIN variant (ISO-8859-1 maybe), for which the 128 8-bit characters (values 128 to 255) have a different encoding in UTF-8. The GTK2 interface expects UTF8-encoded text and sees some bytes which seemingly are not encoded as UTF-8 hence the Pango rendering engine is complaining :)
 
Sounds like we'll have to add locale and charset translation support to Ethereal :)
 
Regards,
 
Olivier

Hello Olivier,
         I was trying to discovery in what protocol this error happened and identified that in Brazil we use some special character, like Ç and ã. This error happen when packets from  machine with name  OPERAÇÃO (OPERATION in English) are captured. I think that the problem is it .

Title: Message
Hello Jorge,
 
This error message occurs when non-ASCII data is displayed "as if it were ASCII", and typically occurs either because a protocol field is not ASCII (or valid UTF-8), or because a protocol implementation is not correct. If you know for which packet/protocol in your capture file this happens, we may provide a bug fix.
 
Regards,
 
Olivier

[Ethereal-users] Message Error


Hi :

       Only to report. I was using Ethereal (0.10.4) and received this message error below :


ETHEREAL.EXE 223: Warning **: Invalid UTF8 STRING PASSED TO PANGO-LAYOUT-SET-TEXT( )


      When I removed the column "Info" this problem no more happened.


IOS - Windows NT


Sorry for my English.
