Hi, I had an issue with character sets being converted incorrectly. My issue was when data passed through mod_perl to and from the database. What I did to fix it is take the NLS_LANG environment variable and also make it a perl environment variable. The code I added was in the httpd.conf file for apache and it looked like the code below:
PerlSetEnv NLS_LANG AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1 PerlPassEnv NLS_LANG Just replace the character set that you are using in your database and with LDAP. It may work but it may not. I am not using LDAP at all but I am using Oracle 10g. Let me know if it works out for you.

It connects to an oracle 10g database uses EE8MSWIN1250 charset. My problem is that the Agent users' data got converted in bad format. The customers data get synchronized perfectly. My LDAP container uses utf8 also. In Config.pm at Customers section I use these options: SourceCharset => 'utf8',# DestCharset => 'iso-8859-2', But what about the Agent section ? How can I influence the conversion similar like above ? And at the end the bad news : I have a test system with 2.2.1 and it works fine with the same settings. Regards.
