Hi Platonides,

Thanks for the pointers. I think I'm going to try the conversion to utf8 while I'm on it ;-)

Regards,

Hans

Hi Huib,

I wouldn't be surprised ;-) But at which point should I have done that, and how?

Thanks for your reply!

Do you have $wgDBmysql5 = true; in your LocalSettings? Given that you are using an old db format it should stay off.

When dumping, did you provide a --default-character-set per http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Backing_up_a_wiki#Character_set ?
