After compression or uploading, the file name will still be GBK encoded, while the default file name encoding in Linux is UTF8. Due to inconsistent encoding, the file name will be changed. The problem of garbled characters requires transcoding the file name to solve this problem.

convmv -f gbk -t utf-8 -r --notest /home/wwwroot

Commonly used parameters:

-r Recursively process subfolders

-notest Really perform operations. By default, no real operations are performed on files

–list displays all supported encodings

-unescap can be escaped, such as changing it to a space

-i Interactive mode (ask for each conversion to prevent misoperation)

Text content conversion iconv
