Mind you, there is no problem if there are accented characters inside the tags, it is only a problem if the directory or filename have special characters.

These symptoms are expected if the charset isn't set to UTF-8 when MinimServer is launched. Are you launching MinimServer manually using the startd command from a login shell, or have you set MinimServer to start automatically when Linux is booted? If it's the latter, how did you set up the automatic start?

Now it is set up to start automatically. I have made an entry in the /etc/rc.local file.

Edit: you are right. When starting manually, it says 'utf8' in the log and a rescan shows the 'missing' folders and files..... How can I set it for autostart but with the correct setting for the locale? Creating a script inside /etc/init.d doesn't work properly either, the result is also US_ASCII.......
