Hi,

What does "show create table profile" in PHPMyAdmin say?
If it's not uft8_bin there's some other problem.

MvH,

Hi Olof,

thanks for the script. I run it on my database (by using PHPMyAdmin from XAMPP) but it still does not work for me.

Furthermore I noticed, if I install laconica database on a standalone MySQL server, it's not possible to register an user anymore. I always get the message "Incorrect username or password" (or something like this). So I fill impelled to use the xampp with MySQL database, without the people search.

    Hi S,

    I already had the database with some test data in it, so I had to
    create a script to update every text column.
    Changing laconica.sql and creating a correct db from scratch
    should work even better.
    Try running "show create table profile\G" in the mysql client to
    see if it's correct, for me it looks like this:

    mysql> show create table profile\G
    *************************** 1. row ***************************
         Table: profile
    Create Table: CREATE TABLE `profile` (
     `id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment COMMENT 'unique identifier',
     `nickname` varchar(64) NOT NULL,
     `fullname` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
     `profileurl` varchar(255) default NULL,
     `homepage` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
     `bio` varchar(140) NOT NULL,
     `location` varchar(255) default NULL,
     `created` datetime NOT NULL COMMENT 'date this record was created',
     `modified` timestamp NOT NULL default CURRENT_TIMESTAMP on update
    CURRENT_TIMESTAMP COMMENT 'date this record was modified',
     PRIMARY KEY  (`id`),
     KEY `profile_nickname_idx` (`nickname`),
     FULLTEXT KEY `nickname`
    (`nickname`,`fullname`,`location`,`bio`,`homepage`)
    ) ENGINE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=19 DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8

    Notice I dropped the comments. :/ The show command doesn't include
    the collation modifier since utf8_general_ci is the default btw.

    I had to drop the full-text index on the profile table to get by
    an error, so for that table I had two extra lines, but apart from
    that each table is a single sql command to change the default and
    then each text column, like this:

    alter table profile drop index nickname;

    ALTER TABLE profile DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8, CHANGE nickname
    nickname varchar(64) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci
     NOT NULL, CHANGE fullname fullname varchar(255) CHARACTER SET
    utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci  NOT NULL, CHANGE profileurl
    profileurl varchar(255) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci
     NULL   DEFAULT NULL, CHANGE homepage homepage varchar(255)
    CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci  NOT NULL, CHANGE bio
    bio varchar(140) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci  NOT
    NULL, CHANGE location location varchar(255) CHARACTER SET utf8
    COLLATE utf8_general_ci  NULL   DEFAULT NULL;

    alter table profile add fulltext index nickname
    (nickname,fullname,location,bio,homepage);

    Another thing that sometimes gets me with MySQL fulltext matching
    is that it doesn't work if you only have one line in the database.
    You'll need a few for the statistical stuff to work properly.

    Hope that helps!

    MvH,

        Hi Olof,

        can you tell me exactly what did you do to get it to run
        please? I changed the laconica.sql to bin8_general_ci before
        perform it but it is still not working for me. People search
        returns no any result everytime.
