We had the same problems in CF5 / Linux (Suse).

CF and Linux would not let you write a � into the db (or many other less usual 
characters).
Always gave unclosed quotation error.

<CFQUERY>
INSERT INTO table
(column)
VALUES
('�')
</CFQUERY>

MM would or could not solve it there was only a workaround using <CFQUERYPARAM> (which 
is not supported by all db's but thankfully ours does)

  Subject: [ cf-dev ] MX/Linux character query



  Morning all,

  We've just had a problem with a site we're moving for a client from
  CF5/Windows -> CFMX/Linux (developed by A.N. Other).  One of the scripts
  just wasn't playing ball and we were getting tag validation errors,
  saying that a <CFIF> tag had not been closed.

  If turned out that this script sends a mail containing a UK pound (=A3)
  sign and for some reason that symbol was making CF bomb out.  It must be
  something to do with the linux implementation because it's been working
  fine on Windows.  Problem was solved by using a chr() call instead of
  actually printing the symbol.

  Anyone else found anything like this?

  Tim.
