[rt-users] Sporatic web attachment corruption

I did an export LANG=C and then an httpd restart and the problem seems to be
corrected, but since it is a sporadic problem, it is difficult to confirm.

We have had the same thing but it seems that in two cases the corruption
occurred from two different corporate networks that probably have proxy
servers in between them and the internet RT server.

When I try to replicate from a direct internet connection the attachments
are ok.

This may be because of sporadic corruptions or related to proxy servers...

I received a report today that this is due to RedHat's perl build having
its' locale set funny at build time. if you export LANG=C before
starting RT, it should clear up.
