Hello all,
I got the following error while importing MARC records into Koha 3.12.3 (on
Ubuntu 12.04 amd64 via Debian package):
utf8 "\xE0" does not map to Unicode at /usr/lib/perl/5.14/Encode.pm line
174.
The record staged fine but it couldn't be imported. When clicking to view
it in staging area, the same error appear.
Perhaps a "long shot", but I remember having a similar problem which turned
out to be (not Unicode) but simply including hyphens in ISBN numbers -- you
have put an apparent ISSN with hyphen into 020$a, and my verification
script shows: "020 - Invalid data found: 8057-7730. Only
[^(97(8|9))?\d{9}(\d|X)$] is valid within this field." (I realize that MARC
purists will object that more - e.g. "(pbk)" - can be added, but bulk
imports seem to be touchy on this subject, so I added the "$" at the end of
the regex.)

I checked the imported file, and it seem to look fine to me. The MARCXML in
the database look ok too. But if I save the MARC BLOB and use marcdump on
it, I got the same error.
The imported file is here:

The saved MARC BLOB is here:

Running perl -d commit_file.pl show something like this:

I really don't get the way Perl (and Koha) handle UTF8 at all. If I print
that escaped string out, some character will be readable but the others
appear as ?. For the records that could be imported, if I print out their
data from Perl I see the same pattern (readable char mixed with ?). But
they somehow end up correct in the database.
I have no idea what's wrong here. If you have any clue, please help.
Thank you very much,
Pongtawat
