------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Aug 6 04:19:13 +0000 2008 ------- I have a java project which I am trying to get running under both Windows and Ubuntu. It uses MySQL on the local machine where I want to enter data in Hebrew. The Ubuntu mysql database is not yet working in Hebrew at all. In Windows I can read and write to mysql using dbConn = DriverManager.getConnection( "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/kishkush?characterEncoding=Hebrew", "root", "han"); where the crucial part is characterEncoding=Hebrew. Now I want to look at my database via OpenOffice. I can see all the data properly but if I try to add a new entry in place of Hebrew characters I get ???? ????. This is after I do the write. Before that I see Hebrew. I have defined in database -> properties -> Additional Settings the Data conversion character set to be Hebrew (ISO-8859-8). I would expect to perform the same job as characterEncoding=Hebrew, but in fact, it does nothing. If I define it or leave it as its default value, the result is exactly the same. This looks to me to be a bug. Thanks, Ilan --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
