Hello, I'm running ActiveState 5.16

Here is the simple code I'm working on right now with some (maybe) useful error messages. The database is in a folder containing a "ü" in its name...


use strict;
use warnings;
use UTF8;
use Tk;
use DBD::SQLite;
use Data::Dumper;
$Data::Dumper::Useqq=1;


my $mw = new MainWindow;
my $types = [ ['Text', '.db'], ['All Files',   '*'],];
my $file_1= $mw->getOpenFile(-filetypes => $types);

#just looking at how the path is
print Dumper($file_1);    

#connecting to sqlite
my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:SQLite:$file_1", "", "", { RaiseError => 1
+, AutoCommit => 1, PrintError => 0 });
