Hello,
I had checked the variables on both the 3.23 and 4.0.18 and they both show
the exact same character sets. Nothing appears to have changed with our data
in the tables or the setting of the server.
Here is what the show variables reports:
| character_set | latin1|
| character_sets | latin1 big5 czech euc_kr gb2312 gbk latin1_de sjis
tis620 ujis dec8 dos german1 hp8 koi8_ru latin2 swe7 usa7 cp1251 danish
hebrew win1251 estonia hungarian koi8_ukr win1251ukr greek win1250 croat
cp1257 latin5 |
| convert_character_set| |
