VERITAS Enterprise Vault (tm) 6.0 Service Pack 1 (SP1) Issues Relating to Multilingual Unicode Data

Details:
This file contains a description of Enterprise Vault 6.0 SP1 issues relating to the use of multilingual Unicode data.
Symantec recommends all customers sign up for our Email Notification Service by clicking "Subscribe", in the top right corner of the Support site (  http://support.veritas.com ), and selecting the products you are running:
This ReadMe file contains the following topics:


Data loss issues
Corruption of recipient name [Ref 33668/SRX050826601530]
If a user with a display name containing double-byte characters appears on the recipient list of a message sent by Outlook 2000, that user's name may appear as question marks (????) after the message has been archived. Restoring the archived item does not correct the corruption.
This problem is caused by an Exchange Server issue. An Exchange Server hotfix will be available from Microsoft by calling Microsoft Product Support, quoting Knowledge Base article number 909357. The hotfix is not yet available and has not yet been certified by Symantec. Microsoft does not plan to issue a hotfix for Exchange 2000 Server.


Installation issues
Corruption in name of program folder [Ref 33724]
This issue affects only English Windows installations.
Setup prompts for the name of the folder into which you want the Enterprise Vault icons to be placed. If the name you specify contains Unicode characters, the folder name becomes corrupted. The folder is created with the corrupt name, but you can rename it after the installation.
Symantec strongly recommends to use only ANSI characters in the program folder name.

Installation folder name truncated [Ref 33722]
When installing Enterprise Vault, Setup asks for the installation folder. The name of the folder may be truncated on the screen display. Setup does install to the correct folder, however.

Installing the SharePoint component
The SharePoint is currently in English. Other languages will be added in a later Service Pack.
When installing the Enterprise Vault SharePoint component, Setup places the file versionsadmin.aspx file in the correct location for the English installation. After the installation you must copy versionsadmin.aspx to the correct language folder for your locale:
1. Run Setup to install the SharePoint component.
2.Copy the file versionsadmin.aspx from this folder:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\60\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS\1033
to this folder:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\60\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS\<localeID>
where <localID> is the locale identifier. For example, 1041 for Japanese systems.
3. Work through the 'Installing and configuring SharePoint archiving' chapter in Installing and Configuring:  http://support.veritas.com/docs/279957 . In the section 'Adding the archived version history link', when instructed to enter a URL, substitute your own local identifier in place of the '1033' in the instruction:
http://spcomputername/_layouts/<localeID>/versionsadmin.aspx
For example, on a Japanese system the correct URL is:
http://spcomputername/_layouts/1041/versionsadmin.aspx
4. Continue with the remainder of the configuration as normal.
Note that the Archived Version History Administration page does not use a stylesheet, so the formatting is not correct.

Minor text corruption when selecting OWA options [Ref 33723]
When you install Enterprise Vault on a Chinese or Japanese Windows system and select the Outlook Web Access (OWA) Front-End or Back-End options, the text of those options is slightly corrupted. The options are still readable and the installation can continue.

English Enterprise Vault server for Lotus Domino Journaling [Ref 601013]
Enterprise Vault 6.0 SP1 adds support for archiving from Lotus Domino Journaling databases. Domino Journaling databases can be added as archiving targets within the Administration Console.
The Domino Server versions supported are 6.0, 6.5, and 7.0. The Domino Server can be running any language version of Windows. Currently the Enterprise Vault server must be running English Windows.

Blank recipient fields in HTML preview [Ref 34121]
This issue occurs only when the Domino server has a Japanese version of Windows and the Domino language pack and the Enterprise Vault server has Japanese version of Windows.
The 'To:' and 'From:' fields are blank when using Browser Search to view the HTML preview of an item when a recipient name contains double-byte characters.
Note that, currently, the Enterprise Vault must be running English Windows; see English Enterprise Vault server for Lotus Domino Journaling.

Truncated text during installation [Ref 34298]
When running a server installation on the license agreement dialog there is a label giving the option to save or print the document. On a Japanese Windows system this label text is truncated and the final line cannot be read at all. The complete text is as follows:
To confirm that you have read and agreed to the terms, please click
'Yes'.  Otherwise, click 'No', to terminate the installation. In this
case, please return the Software, hard copy License Agreement, and
all accompanying materials to the supplier, for a full refund


Issues with Japanese Multilingual User Interface Pack (MUI)
The Japanese Multilingual User Interface Pack (MUI) is a set of language-specific resources that can be added to the English version of Windows to enable the user interface to be changed according to the language preference of the user.
This section lists issues with the Japanese Enterprise Vault 6.0 SP1 client and the MUI when Japanese is enabled as the default language for Outlook, with English Office 2003 installed and with the English locale selected. These problems do not occur if the Japanese locale is selected.
Note that the English Enterprise Vault 6.0 SP1 client works correctly with the Japanese MUI.

Content not correctly displayed [Ref 34046]


Restrictions
Adding an archive point to a folder with a Japanese name [Ref 33693/33844]
This issue affects only English Windows installations.
If the Japanese language files are not installed it is not possible to create an archive point for a folder that has a Japanese name.
To solve this, install the Japanese language files. You can then copy and paste Japanese folder names into the MS-DOS command line as required.
To install Japanese language support:
1. In the Windows Control Panel, double-click Regional and Language Options.
2. On the Languages tab, select Install files for East Asian languages and click OK.
3. When the language files have been installed, go back to Regional and Language Options and choose Japanese from the drop down list on the Advanced tab.
4. It is now possible to paste a Japanese folder name into the DOS command line. The output from ArchivePoints may show the Japanese folder name incorrectly but the archive point is created correctly.

Index location names cannot contain Unicode characters [Ref 33551]
This issue affects only English Windows installations.
There is an AltaVista restriction that prevents Enterprise Vault from using indexing locations that have Unicode characters in the fully-qualified path name. If such an indexing location does exist, errors similar to the following are generated, with question marks (?) in place of Unicode characters:
Event Type:     Error
Event Source:   Enterprise Vault
Event Category: Index Server
Event ID:       7264

Japanese characters and SharePoint Portal Server 2003 with BCDL [Ref 33390]
Documents with Japanese characters in their titles cannot be archived from SharePoint Portal Server 2003 with Backwards Compatible Document Libraries (BCDL). The following error may be generated in the event log:
Event Type:     Error
Event Source:   Enterprise Vault
Event Category: SPS Archiving Server

User:           N/A
Computer:       DEMO
Description:
An exception has occurred.
[Internal reference CSPSEnhancedDocumentItem::/PADV/e1]

Corrupt file names for zip contents [Ref 34201]
When a zip file contains files with double-byte characters in the file names is archived, the names of those files are corrupted. This means that it is not possible to search by file name for the documents in the zip file. The zip file can be restored correctly.

Cannot search for HKSCS messages [Ref 34290]
A message that uses the Hong Kong Supplementary Character Set is archived correctly and a shortcut to them is correct. However, when the item is found by Browser Search, Outlook Integrated Search, or Archive Explorer, the summary text is shown as a series of question marks (?? ?? ?? ??).

PST Import Wizard fails [Ref 34299]
In a Korean Windows environment the PST Import Wizard always reports an unspecified error at the end of migrating a PST file. The wizard does not then continue to import further PST files. Thus, each run of the wizard is limited to importing a single PST file.

Administration Console does not support direct editing of some characters [Ref 601620]
The edit controls within the Administration Console do not support direct editing using hiragana or katakana. It is possible to paste hiragana or katakana into the controls. This affects the editing names or descriptions on various property pages.


PST migration issues
There are various code page problems that can occur within Outlook 97-2002 Personal Folders Files. A PST file itself does not have an associated code page; the code page of a message is the same as the system code page of the client computer on which the message was added to the PST.
For example it is possible for ANSI PST files to contain messages with code pages that do not completely reflect the message content. When such an ANSI PST file is imported, the MAPI header information from these messages may not be indexed correctly, in which case it will not be searchable. The content of the messages will be searchable.
The messages are correctly stored in the archive, however, when viewed or restored, the header information may not be correct if the code page of the text strings does not match the code page of the message.

Archiving Example 1
1. An ANSI PST file is created on a Japanese system and Japanese messages are added.
2. The PST file is marked by Enterprise Vault for the first time. Enterprise Vault will now always consider this to be a Japanese PST file.
3. The PST file is opened on a Korean system and Korean messages are added.
4. The PST file is marked again by Enterprise Vault, but this does not change the fact that Enterprise Vault considers this to be a Japanese PST file.
5. The PST file is migrated by Enterprise Vault using the marking in the file; that is, as a Japanese PST file.
Result:

Archiving Example 2
1. An ANSI PST file is created on a Japanese system and Japanese messages are added.
2. The PST file is not marked by Enterprise Vault.
3. The PST file is migrated by the PST Migrator Task using a Policy that specifies a Western European code page.
Result:

Archiving Example 3
1. A PST file is created on a Japanese system and Japanese messages are added.
2. The PST file is migrated by client-driven migration, which uses the system code page on the client computer.
Result:


Other issues
Path to vault store partition cannot contain Unicode characters [Ref 33821]
This issue affects only English Windows installations.
The path to a vault store partition cannot contain Unicode characters. This means that neither the partition name nor the vault store name can contain Unicode characters.
If it does contain Unicode characters, the following error is generated many times:
Event Type:     Error
Event Source:   Enterprise Vault
Event Category: Storage Crawler
Event ID:       6882
Date:           08/10/2005
Time:           12:26:22
User:           N/A
Computer:       VAULT
Description:
Unable to complete retrieval request

Reason: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.  [0x8007007b]
Vault: Inbox
Vault Id: 13E9F90BD50E70A4AAC30543CE3DCF4A01110000vault.demo.local

HTML preview with Japanese codepage displays Yen symbol instead of backslash [Ref 33285]
When an item that contains backslashes (\) is archived using a Japanese (932) code page, the backslashes are shown as Yen symbols (¥) in the HTML preview of the archived item.

Corrupt shortcut when 'Delivery Status Notification (Failure)' message is archived [Ref 33569]
A message sent to an invalid recipient results in a 'Delivery Status Notification (Failure)' message being delivered to the sender. If this message contains Unicode data (because the original subject line contained Unicode characters) then the shortcut content looks similar to the following:
<<
\'a5\'e9\'a5\'a4\'a5\'c0\'a9\'60\'c4\'ee\'ee\'8a\'a4\'ce\'b8\'df\'cb\'d9\'b5\'c0\'3b\'20\'d2\'f2
\'ce\'aa\'c4\'c7\'d1\'f9\'bb\'e1\'cd\'fe\'d0\'b2\'b5\'bd\'b9\'fa\'bc\'d2\'ba\'cd\'c9\'e7\'bb\'e1\'
b5\'c4\'b0\'b2\'b6\'a8 (1.6KB)

(1.6KB)
>>
Double-clicking the item to open it shows the content correctly and the item can be restored successfully, without corruption.

'File Save' dialogs may show corrupt characters [Ref 33850]
The file names shown in the 'File Save' dialog may show corrupted text when:

Corrupt previews of attachments in Archive Explorer [Ref 33995]
When using Archive Explorer to display the HTML preview of an attachment to an archived item, the text shown in the preview is corrupted. This issue affects only the preview; the text in the archived item is correct.

Incorrect date fields in Japanese Browser Search [Ref 33800, 33810]
In Japanese Browser Search the labels used for From: and To: are incorrect.
Additionally, Browser Search and Advanced Search pages do not use the same layout for the From: and To: fields.

Duplicated options in Archive Explorer search [Ref 34305]
On the Addressing tab of Archive Explorer search, two of the three options are identical.
