FTP File transfer With Chinese Characters
When I'm trying to send files with Chinese characters over ftp, I am getting:
500 ERROR (Internal Server ERROR) through my backend code; It's working fine for english characters but not for Chinese. What is the best possible way to send those files with Chinese names over FTP? Thanks in advance hope best will come.

The File Transfer Protocol, as defined inRFC959 and later, is one of the oldest protocols on the Internet, using as primary character set the 7-bit ASCII. International characters need a protocol that uses Unicode. Such a protocol is theSSH File Transfer Protocolor SFTP, proposed in RFC2640.
Using an SFTP client, you would be using the UTF-8 protocol on both client and
server (if their implementation follows the standard).
Windows 10 contains the command-line utility sftp.
Or as alternative you could use a third-party utility such as the freeWinSCP.
Use FTP binary transfer, rather than ASCII (ANSI) and zip files to hide filenames.
