Hi, There is a problem with encoding in the BOINC database for forum and private messages.
When users write their messages on the native languages (for example in Russian, in cyrillic charset), these messages are shown as question marks (?????). The problem is because of BOINC DB tables are non-UTF8 encoded by default. There is a small patch ;-) alter database boinc_db default character set = utf8; alter table user convert to character set utf8; alter table team convert to character set utf8; alter table profile convert to character set utf8; alter table category convert to character set utf8; alter table forum convert to character set utf8; alter table thread convert to character set utf8; alter table post convert to character set utf8; alter table private_messages convert to character set utf8; alter table friend convert to character set utf8; May be there are other tables too. --- Nikolay _______________________________________________ boinc_dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ssl.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/boinc_dev To unsubscribe, visit the above URL and (near bottom of page) enter your email address.
