See: > http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/mysqldump.html Dump & restore was done properly. dump on 4.0, add set names latin2; load into 4.1. The problem is that by default connections from client are as latin1, db is latin2 so servers needs to do conversion from latin2->latin1 which can't be done and thus I'm getting '?' characters instead of latin2 characters. The thing I need is how to force default latin2 in all client connections even if client won't request latin2 by using set names. Tried doing things like in mysqld.conf: init-connect = SET @lchar = IF(@@session.character_set_client = _utf8"latin1", @@global.character_set_client, @@session.character_set_client); SET character_set_client = @lchar; SET character_set_results = @lchar; SET character_set_connection = @lchar; but that doesn't work unfortunately from init-connect (works from mysql cmdline client) ;-( -- Arkadiusz Miśkiewicz PLD/Linux Team http://www.t17.ds.pwr.wroc.pl/~misiek/ http://ftp.pld-linux.org/ -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
