Hello.
You've already got a good answer: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql/187794 Subscribe to mysql list or use web interface. Why are you mixing latin1 with utf8 in the same column? You can check if something is wrong with your connection variables using the following statement: show variables like '%char%'; Use mysql command line client or mysql-query-browser (or other client software which correctly handles UTF8 data) to check if import of your data was performed successfully. In such a way you can localize the problem, and find whether it is related to Tomcat or wrong data in MySQL. >I am still having trouble with french characters if anyone has ANY ideas, > please help. > > We have installed the newest version of MySql and cannot get it to play > nice > with French characters.
