getting cyrillic non-utf8 comments by means of export_comments.bml

Hello.

I have a question regarding old non-utf8 comments when
getting them through export_comments.bml.

export_comments.bml call LJ::text_out on comments' subject
and body, which "blots out all non-ASCII chars":

$$rtext =~ s/[\x00\x80-\xff]/\?/g;

So instead of old cyrillic comments one can only get
question marks.


Journal entries (exported by export_do.bml) on the contrary
are correctly converted by LJ::text_convert.


May I ask developers of livejournal to upgrade export_comments.bml
to use LJ::text_convert on comments' subject, body and picture keywords,
so it gives out somewhat correct data for old non-utf8 comments?


Thanks in advance.

Developers don't really seem to care about 'minor' i18n issues. Long-standing cyrillic interests issue (which aren't properly lowercased) shows that.

How to start lj after installation

I installed livejournal on my PC, howerver when I stop and start apache (shutdown and restart the server) and attempt to connect to localhost through the browser it loads normal apache html file.

I defined everthing in the httpd.conf file as defined in Livejournal configuration document.

Question: How do you start livejournal after installation, what a'm I doing wrong.

Note: Use Debian and successfully followed all the installation steps as described on Livejournal.

my email address is: Michael@eligonfamily.com

PS I attempted to creat an account at Livejournal but did not receive a confirmation email hence the Anonymous account.

sample configuration used

LoadModule mime_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/mod_mime.so
LoadModule autoindex_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/mod_autoindex.so
LoadModule dir_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/mod_dir.so

Можно сделать как-то перенести записи из сообщества в сообщество? Или хотябы из сообщества в журнал.
