Comment (by Tom Forbes): I was investigating this and was surprised to see that `REGEXP BINARY '.*'` matched nothing when using MySQL 8. I thought there might be a bug with MySQL but could not find much online other than this cryptic commit entitled `Work around REGEXP BINARY not working correctly on MySQL 8 by using REGEXP_LIKE`: https://github.com/jeremyevans/sequel/commit/ba3ea1c218d10bbab3f2b48039faedd4859865f8 After copying the Oracle `regex_lookup` method which does exactly this all tests pass on 8, however the REGEXP_LIKE function does not exist in MySQL 5.6. -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/29451#comment:5> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
