hi there,

Some of my sites really needs those extra utf8 encoding features in 4.1 Mysql, but is it fully compatible with Plesk Reloaded (on RHEL 3)?

As I have searched the web only of ~20% attempts were successfull..

What is your experience?

NO...

I just used the ART yum update and it screwed my two very important databases over. I am now in serious mess. I expect many many more hours of unraveling this mess.

With one of my databases a table was corrupted. With the other errors happen like the following.

"SearchUpdate::doUpdate". MySQL returned error "1016: Can't open file: 'scp_searchindex.MYI'. (errno: 145) (localhost)".

UTF-8 encoding is always ugly, no matter what you're working on. Everyone uses a different "standard"

And if a frog had wings he wouldnt bump his ass on the ground when he hopped.

I don't agree, Unicode is becoming THE standard

Hi all,

UTF-8 is just a way of representating Unicode. I would agree with those who said that UTF-16 and UTF-32 are much better, but Unicode will be the standard soon as it copes all the character sets in the world.
