Item returning non ASCII chars

[aitor555]

Hi,

I am monitoring Windows services using user parameters and a powershell script. It is working fine but some service descriptions have non ascii standard characters (Spanish) and thus they are displayed incorrectly in Zabbix.

If I execute the script manually in the Windows box being mointores the result is OK.

Any idea?

Thanks in advance.

IMHO problem is with code page/charset. Zabbix DB is UTF-8 by default. Spanish Windows should be windows-1252. So convert string to UTF-8 in your script and it should be OK.
