Title: UTF-8 error on install
Post by: markhe on March 27, 2007, 06:23:43 PM

Using the latest version of both SMF and TP - Fresh Install

http://www.lock.com/community (http://www.lock.com/community)

On both the package manager and manual install. I get the following screen:

(https://www.tinyportal.net/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.lock.com%2Fcommunity%2Fscreen.png&hash=43bea7f366e0fc822a2ee702233bf804929701a2)

On the package installer, this comes up after "Install Now" on the manual it is immediate after hitting the manual install url...

The line in the settings.php $db_character_set = 'utf8'; IS commented out to alleviate the "Names" error.

Thanks for any help in advance.

If this is a fresh install then why do any TinyPortal database tables exist at all?

Thats not a fresh install of TP, it might be that he used a backup for the DB on a fresh install.
And TP doesent support utf-8 at this time, it sees the tables with utf-8 but it will not update anything. You have to manually add the utf-8 language after the install.
