[Mediawiki-l] CMS::Mediawiki and german umlauts in title

[Sigbert Klinke]

Hi,

I've setup a Mediawiki which mirrors part of another german mediawiki.
Therefore I download the pages and try to upload them in my wiki.

For doing the upload I use a perl program and the Perl package
CMS::Mediawiki. Everythings wents well as long as the names of the pages
are standard ASCII, but since I mirror a german mediawiki some pages
contain german umlauts. Prefetching the pages, e.g. with

GET
http://mars.wiwi.hu-berlin.de/mediawiki/statistik/index.php?title=%C3%84hnlichkeitsma%C3%9F&action=edit

delivers me the right page. But if I try to update the page via

POST
http://mars.wiwi.hu-berlin.de/mediawiki/statistik/index.php?title=Ähnlichkeitsmaß&action=submit

it changes the page

http://mars.wiwi.hu-berlin.de/mediawiki/statistik/index.php/%C3%83%C2%84hnlichkeitsma%C3%83%C2%9F

Using

POST
http://mars.wiwi.hu-berlin.de/mediawiki/statistik/index.php?title=%C3%84hnlichkeitsma%C3%9F&action=submit

delivers me a "Original title: Spezial:Badtitle" error.

So, my questions are:

11) Has someone used successfully another software to upload pages with
german umlauts from files (it can be in any programming language :)

2.) Has someone successfully used CMS::Mediawiki, encountered the same
problem and found a solution?

3.) Maybe someone has an idea what went wrong and can tell me.

Thanks in advance
