[email protected] changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|UNCONFIRMED |RESOLVED Resolution|--- |NOTABUG --- Comment #17 from [email protected] --- Since no one else can see this problem, and two different client front ends have the same problem on my network, the problem may be in my database server. I have spent more time investigating Mysql (MariaDb) options. I could find nothing that implied my server was configured to only handle characters <= x00, and since it clearly does store characters >x00, and MySql(Native) works, I had previously assumed it couldn't be the server configuration. It was suggested elsewhere that I execute a mysql command: show variables like 'char%'; This showed that both the 'character set database' and 'character set server' was Latin1. I added: [mysqld] collation-server = utf8_unicode_ci init-connect='SET NAMES utf8' character-set-server = utf8 to /etc/mysql/my.cnf. The problem has now been resolved. As far as I know I never set any of these options previously, and never saw any need since it all worked properly, storing characters well above x2000. I don't pretend to understand it, but all is now well with Mysql(JDBC). Why MySql(Native) was unaffected I will never know. I have accordingly closed the bug report. I thank those who spent valuable time testing it for me previously. I can only assume their base mysql configuration was all utf8. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
