Thanks, it's really weird, because UTF8 is what MySQL uses in table definitions etc:
CREATE TABLE foo ( ... ) ENGINE=InnoDB CHARSET=utf8; Changing to utf-8, or UTF-8 (with or without quotes) produces a crash in ActiveRecord instead of a warning from DO: Character set 'utf-8' is not a compiled character set and is not specified in the '/usr/share/mysql/charsets/Index.xml' file /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p180/gems/activerecord-3.0.7/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/mysql_adapter.rb:614:in `real_connect': Can't initialize character set utf-8 (path: /usr/share/mysql/charsets/) (Mysql::Error) Using UTF8 (without the hypen, in uppercase) produces the warning, but Rails starts successfully. With regards to DataObjects vs. DataMapper, excuse my ignorance, but are they not all part of the same group of projects? They all come under the data-mapper github account and seem to have the same contributors.
