This fixed most of the errors, and made the application stop getting sql errors when it hit non-latin emails, too. Despite this, some of the emails are still causing the program to hit incorrect string value errrors: (Incorrect string value: '\xE4\xC5\xCC\xC9\xD3\xD8...' for

column 'contents' at row 1) The contents column is a MEDIUMTEXT datatybe which uses the utf8 column charset and the utf8_general_ci column collate. There are no flags that I can toggle in this column. Keeping in mind that I don't want to touch or even look at the application source code unless absolutely necessary: What is causing that error? (yes, I know the emails are full of random garbage, but I thought utf8 would be pretty permissive) How can I fix it? What are the likely effects of such a fix? One thing I considered was switching to a utf8 varchar([some large number]) with the binary flag turned on, but I'm rather unfamiliar with MySQL, and have no idea if such a fix makes sense. mysql share|improve this question asked Jul 22 '09 at 20:26 Brian 16.5k1261122 2 Post-mortem: RichieHindle's solution resolved the problem and did not introduce any additional problems in the time it was running. It may have been a bit of a hack, but it worked, and allowed me to avoid getting my hands dirty with 3rd party software that I don't fully understand. At this point, we've updated to a newer version of the software/schema which handles all of these encoding issues properly (and is new enough that it's actually supported), rendering the hack unnecessary. –Bria

Unfortunately, it makes importing content in foreign languages or with foreign names quite difficult. This issue appears to occur in a wide range of special characters (i.e. diacritics) and is a strong indication that when attempting to write to the db it's not sending UTF8 characters. Please note that saving to any of the fields via the standard edit-save on a node does function. A few examples from our own data import would be: ’ “ ” ì ‘ ' … è ä ó ú í é A sample error looks like: SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1366 Incorrect string value: '\xA0',\x0A ...' for column 'message' at row 1 Because these are proper terms or quoted materials, altering them would alter the meaning of the material: "Iphigénie en Tauride" is not the same as "Iphigenie en Tauride" "La Pasión Según Antígona Pérez" is not the same as "La Pasion Segun Antigona Perez" If any more inf
