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.

I have tracked down (actually a co-worker has the credits for this) my reason for failing to upgrade to this: - i have no access to a shell prompt to start php scripts manually - my mysql engine is of version 4.0. so there is no ALTER DATABASE command to change from latin1 to utf8 (and no, i don't know when my provider will upgrade this version)
