I installed Simplex Chat cli in a clean Ubuntu 20.04 Docker container and then I created a new TestProfile
Trying to connect to my phone profile I get:
commitAndBuffer: invalid argument (cannot encode charatter '\477')

Could it be due to my profile name?

Expected Behavior

Successful connection

  1. create Ubuntu container from Ubuntu 20.04
  2. install wget
  3. wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/simplex-chat/simplex-chat/stable/install.sh | bash
  4. start simplex-chat and create a new profile
  5. enter command /connect INVITATION_LINK
