Hi Padraig,
Thanks for the help, hope you are feeling better.
It definitely looks to be the problem with the language environment on both
servers alright.
(btw old server is running Red Hat Linux 7.3 and the new server is running
CentOS Linux).
I ran locale on both servers and the old server gave:
LANG=en_US.iso885915
Whereas the new server gave:
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
I will try to convert the mysql data on my existing mysql server to utf-8
and redo the mysqldump.
However, looking at /usr/share/mysql/charsets on the old server I do not
see utf-8 listed.
So I'm wondering is utf-8 supported on my existing mysql server.
If not, I see some other things I might be able to try from the link you
forwarded me in your previous email.
I'll let you know how I get on.
Thanks,
Regards,
Eugene.
