When I try to create a Chinese or Japanese page I get this error:

Did you change the character set configuration of MySQL or the tables? Don't do that. MediaWiki uses UTF-8, but doesn't pay much attention to what MySQL thinks the charset is; under the old "latin-1" default it'll run good clean binary UTF-8 on top of that with few problems. Under the experimental MySQL 5 mode it can use tables which are set up as UTF-8. Don't try to mix these modes.
