Rainer,
You can use iconv to strip the offending characters from
you dump which will allow it to be imported into 8.2. In
our migration, we only had 2 bad characters in 100k tickets.
If you find a pattern in the problem characters, you could
do a DB update to clean it before the transition, too. Good
uck.
Hi,
I read about that, thanks.
The problem was that I had already upgraded the server - the original
DB was only available as a tar.gz, which I installed on a fresh
FreeBSD5.4.
What does one take as parameters for iconv?
I tried UTF-8 to UTF-8, but that didn't change the file.
cheers,
Rainer
