Ok, got it. Any chance this iso-8859-1 --> utf-8 problem will get fixed on future releases?
Well, it worked fine for us, so I'm not sure what there is to fix?
Mmmh... "Houston, we got a problem" ;-)
Not sure why it didn't work for me, then. Does my description of the problem on bug #3898 [http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3898] give you any clue about what could have failed on my upgrade (and, judging by some of the replies, on others' as well)? If not, what additional info can I provide to help you track down the problem?
- Operating system and version
- PHP version
- PHP configuration
- Which PHP modules are installed
- MySQL version
- MySQL configuration
- LocalSettings.php
- Any other modifications or settings on MediaWiki
- Exact, step-by-step procedure you used for running the upgrade
- If possible, sample data files
Chars being replaced by commas is not something I've ever seen.
Fair enough =)
I actually tested the upgrade on my home computer, which has FC4 with up-to-date packages. However, production server has RHEL AS 3, and packages versions differ significantly (eg. production MySQL is 3.23.58, home MySQL is 4.1.14). I am at work now, so I won't be able to gather all information you requested; I will get back to you later with all data.
I haven't tested the upgrade on the production server, so I can't tell right now if it works there or not (I will need to be very careful with its DB, and also these tests will imply in downtime, so it's not a trivial move; at home I can trash the DB anytime I need ;-)).
I might be away for a couple of days, so it's likely I can only provide required data next week. I will post info here ASAP.
Questions:
- PHP configuration = /etc/php.ini, /etc/php.d/* ? - MySQL configuration = /etc/my.cnf ? - can I send any files attached directly to your email?
TIA
Andre
