The current MinimServer version of ohNet is 1.37.5521.2, not 1.37.5521. This contains some bug fixes that are not (yet) in the ohNet repository. You can download the source code for this version from this link.

Thanks, Simon, I hadn't realised 1.37.5521.2 had fixes of its own. I've rebuilt the FreeBSD zip from your source tarball, so it now has your UTF-8 string fixes. It's built and tested the same way as before: built on FreeBSD 13, with the ohNet self-test on 13, 14 and 15.

If you installed the zip from my earlier post, please replace it with this one:

Code:

cd /usr/local/share/minimserver/libext
fetch -o 'ohnet(linux-intel)-1.37.5521.2.zip' https://github.com/imush/ohnet-freebsd/releases/download/v1.37.5521.2-2/ohnet.linux-intel.-1.37.5521.2.zip

then restart MinimServer. The guide at https://imush.github.io/ohnet-freebsd/ now links to this build.

Simon, if a future MinimServer ohNet again carries fixes that aren't upstream, a link to the source like this one is all I need: the build picks it up from there.

PS it looks like ohNet is not eagerly merging outside changes. I submitted a patch of my own but I see pull requests sitting there for years.
