Answer 1

From PHP DOC

Locale setting is taken into account by this function. If LANG is e.g. en_US.UTF-8, files in one-byte encoding are read wrong by this function.

You can try

header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8');
$fp = fopen("log.txt", "r");
echo "
";
while ( ($dataRow = fgetcsv($fp, 1000, ";")) !== FALSE ) {
    $dataRow = array_map("utf8_encode", $dataRow);
    print_r($dataRow);
}


Output 

Array
(
    [0] => ID
    [1] => englishName
    [2] => germanName
)
Array
(
    [0] => 1
    [1] => Austria
    [2] => Österreich
)
