- Description
Doing an upgrade of an 18.x tiki (using the console command didn't work at all) i am presented with this big red error box:
Encoding IssueSomething is wrong with the database encoding. The database has UTF-8 as default encoding but some tables in the database have a different collation, utf8_unicode_ci. Converting to UTF-8 may solve this but may also make matters worse. You should investigate what happened or only proceed with backups.
etc...
This doesn't make sense becauseutf8_unicode_ciis a UTF-8 collation.- Solution
Sorry about this everyone, it was a local effect when testing a database which i have previously upgraded. Even though i deleted all the table in it, the database collation was still set to utf8mb4_unicode_ci, so the warning was saying that the tables' collations were different from this - maybe it could be better worded but nothing to fix here i think, and probably won't happen in "normal" operation.
Apologies for the noise (but it was a big scary warning!
)
