Surely this is a problem with MySQL and not mediawiki?
Perhaps you should try the MySQL forums or mailing lists

Hi all, I have asked question about backup and restore problem for quite a while.
My site is in Chinese and I am using zh-cn which is the simplified Chinese.
so I guess when I use mysqldump to backup the database, I sould do the following
mysqldump -u root -p --single-transaction --default-character-set= gb2312 chpwikidb > backup.sql
But then I got the following msg on the command line,
mysqldump: Character set '' is not a compiled character set and is not specified in the '/usr/share/mysql/charsets/Index.xml' file
Can someone let me know how to fix this problem thanks jc
