The new version is supposed to be 5.8.7, not 5.8.0. The 5.8.0 release has completely broken UTF-8 support (so broken, you can't actually disable it from the script in some cases). Uninstall 5.8.0 and upgrade to something newer (or find your 5.8.7 binary and symlink it over /usr/bin/perl). -HD On Tuesday 20 September 2005 04:12, H Minwell wrote:

Is the error message incorrect? or Msf::UI::BrokenUTF8() incorrect? What should I do if I want to use metasploitframeworkwith UTF-8? Can anyone help me?
