            Bug ID: 125286
           Summary: Base not usable under Windows account with Chinese
                    user name
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.2.1.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Base
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: ming.v.hua at qq.com

Description:
I've used LO for quite a few years, but never touched the Base part.  Recently
I tried my hands on it, but found it not working at all under my non-privileged
user account with a Chinse (non-Latin) user name on Windows 10.


Steps to Reproduce:
There are two symptoms:

1. Creating a new database in LO Base, after choosing options (don't register
the database in the system, everything else default) in the wizard, the save
file dialog pops out and asks for a file name.  After entering the file name,
the dialog window disappears and the following error message dialog pops out:
firebird_sdbc error:
*I/O error during "CreateFile (create)" operation for file "C:\USERS\<Chinese
User Name>\APPDATA\LOCAL\TEMP\LU1624462CC3W.TMP\LU1624462CC40.TMP\FIREBIRD"
*Error while trying to create file
*ϵͳ�Ҳ���ָ����·���� 
caused by
'isc_create_database'
(My user name is redacted as it's my real name.  The scrambled characters are
just as shown on my screen.)
After this error no operation on the database seems possible.

2. Opening an existing database in LO Base, the following error message pops
out:
firebird_sdbc error:
*cannot open backup file C:\Users\<Scrambled
Characters>\AppData\Local\Temp\lu1624462cc3w.tmp\lu1624462cc3z.tmp/firebird.fbk
*Exiting before completion due to errors
caused by
'isc_service_query'
(Here the path doesn't exist, as the <Scrambled Characters> part is not my user
name.  Since my user name has two characters and this scrambled part has three,
I suspect there is some UTF-8 to UCS-2 conversion issue here.)

Under the administrative account with a English user name, Base seems to work
fine on the surface.

I'm not sure the two symptoms are connected, so let me know if I need to file a
separate bug.


Actual Results:
Base is not usable for users with Chinese account names.

Expected Results:
Base works for every account.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
