Do you have this issue inside RStudio IDE ? or using an external install of Quarto and command line ?

bug quarto

Note that the Quarto developers suggested to move this issue from [there](https:…//github.com/quarto-dev/quarto-cli/issues/7473) to here. A colleague with a non-ASCII character in his `USERPROFILE` has R installed in `c:\users\Ørjan\appdata\Local\Programs\R` (due to lack of administrative privileges). Rendering of the simplest R-chunk errs with ```bash ERROR: Error executing 'C:\Users\�rjan\AppData\Local\Programs\R\R-4.3.2\bin\x64\Rscript.exe': Systemet finner ikke angitt bane. (os error 3) Unable to locate an installed version of R. Install R from https://cloud.r-project.org/ ``` R works perfectly fine elsewhere, and Quarto renders if not containing any R chunks or if `quarto render` or `quarto serve` is used on the command line. We tried to install R in regular Program Files path but some strange admin rights are missing so not an option for now. Other colleagues (and I) have no problems, and we also have no non-ascii characters in our R paths. NOTE: Although I suspect Quarto has the bug, I am open for the idea that there is something strange in the RStudio locale setup for Norwegian, as all my Norwegian colleagues have needed to set LC_ALL="nb.utf8" for non-ascii characters to work - despite R 4.2 supposedly having made everything utf8 default (https://github.com/rstudio/rstudio/issues/12668). ### System details RStudio Edition : Desktop RStudio Version : 2023.12.0 Build 340 OS Version : Windows 11 R Version : 4.3.2 ```bash [System.Text.Encoding]::Default.EncodingName Vesteuropeisk (Windows) Get-WinSystemLocale | Select-Object Name, DisplayName, @{ n='OEMCP'; e={ $_.TextInfo.OemCodePage } }, @{ n='ACP'; e={ $_.TextInfo.AnsiCodePage } } Name DisplayName OEMCP ACP ---- ----------- ----- --- nb-NO Norsk (bokmål) (Norge) 850 1252 ``` ```r Sys.getenv("LC_ALL") # Note that this must be set to nb.utf8, otherwise we are unable to even run the string "øæå" to the console.

### Bug description I'm trying to help a student who seems to have the same pro…blem on Windows reported in issue #4103 . (Let me know if I should reopen that issue instead.) We've run the commands suggested there at the end the thread by @cderv and here are the results. Any suggestions that I can I try with the student? ``` PS C:\Users\王茜舒> Get-ItemPropertyValue -Path "HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Nls\CodePage" -Name ACP 936 PS C:\Users\王茜舒>

Are you in a case of a specific codepage or specific character in your username or quarto installation path ?
