Hi, I recently upgraded from 4.0 to 4.1 because of the multilingual support.
But importing the DB dump into the new 4.1 version all foreign characters (french, spanish, portoguese) have been replaced by ? character... I've been trying to understand the new "collation" feature but i seems quite difficult to setup. Anybody has already faced this problem ? Here's my current configuration: 1) my.cnf (only the mysqld section) [mysqld] user = mysql pid-file = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock port = 3306 # Both location gets rotated by the cronjob. #log = /var/log/mysql.log log = /var/log/mysql/mysql.log basedir = /usr datadir = /db tmpdir = /tmp language = /usr/share/mysql/english 2) Output show variables like '%char%'; character_set_client utf8 character_set_connection utf8 character_set_database latin1 character_set_results utf8 character_set_server latin1 character_set_system utf8 character_sets_dir /usr/share/mysql/charsets/ 3) Out put show variables like '%coll%'; collation_connection utf8_general_ci collation_database latin1_swedish_ci collation_server latin1_swedish_ci Thanks for any help Regards Roberto Jobet ____________________________________________________________ 6X velocizzare la tua navigazione a 56k? 6X Web Accelerator di Libero!
