Downloaded PharoLauncher (the latest installer at http://files.pharo.org/pharo-launcher/win-alpha/, bleedingedge and signed).

Installed it without problem in the directory I wanted (as opposed to defaulting to my Documents folder as it was previously). I installed PL in a directory without "funky" characters.

But it bombs when PL (class PhLDirectoryBasedImageRepository) assumes my images are located in C:\Users\Beno��St-Jean\Documents\Pharo\images

The path is not correctly encoded (the ��) and it breaks.

No window opens, I get a blank screen and a debugger. 

Screenshot & fuel stack attached.

Reported the issue on GitHub: #92

Hi Phil,

 

I can help you to fix this issue. Can you tell me the list of the files in the folder that is designed by the error?

And in the parent folder, there should be a zip file with the same name, can you check if Pharo.exe is here and if the file list is the same?

It will be nice if you can serialize the stack and send it to me / post it in a new github issue: https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-launcher/issues .
