charset 'autodetect' problem
Hi all!
I've recently upgraded from MySql 4.0.24 to 4.1.10a.
I have an application using this database via JDBC. MySqlConnector/J 3.0.14 is installed (I've also tried to connect with the latest Connector/J release, I have the same problem).
Here is part of the my.ini file:
[mysqld]
# The TCP/IP Port the MySQL Server will listen on
port=3306
# The default character set that will be used when a new schema or table is
# created and no character set is defined
default-character-set=latin2
default-collation=latin2_hungarian_ci
According to the documentation I've read if a client connects to the database, it should automatically use latin2 now. However, if I write latin2 characters to the database, I get ? characters instead. If I correct them in the database by hand and read them with my app they show up OK.
If I set the connection parameters and 'force' the connection to use latin2, everything is fine.
With version 4.0.24 everthing worked fine.
The problem is, I would like to use another application, of which I don't have the source, so I can't modify the connection parameters - that's why I would need this 'autodetect' feature to work correctly.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Attila
