ISO 8859-something first, then UTF-8. None worked.

dmoore:
ok, I did some more testing.

the file fails to open if:
1/ I set my fallback encoding to utf8.
2/ I set utf8, windows 1252, ISO 8859-1 or default as my default encoding.

on the other hand: with windows 1252, ISO8859-1 or default as a fallback encoding the file opens just fine.

I'm updating my working copy to see if I can get more info out of the debug log.

dmoore:
btw, do you know what the encoding of that file actually is?

dmoore:
using a more recent revision of C::B

still breaks if the "use system locale settings" is not checked (works if it is checked because it uses the fallback)

Morten's error message:
Warning: Using user specified encoding as fallback!
Encoding fallback is: Unicode 8 bit (UTF-8) (ID: 41)
Final encoding detected: Unicode 8 bit (UTF-8) (ID: 41)
Encoding conversion using settings has failed!
Encoding choosen was: Unicode 8 bit (UTF-8) (ID: 41)

except for utf8, this now works even without the system settings fallback. (would have to check the svn logs to see what changed)

I have no idea. It opens just fine in UltraEdit, but I have not checked if it reports the detected encoding somewhere.
