I thought you might be interested in how far I have got with solving my problem with MySql(via phpMyAdmin) to website character_set problems. I thought I had solved the problem when my characters on my website started showing the special characters. This was a partial success though. When I went back to phpMyAdmin and entered new text the problem was the same, but reversed. What now happens is

Hello, I am having this mysql error in my ruby on rails application. ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid occurred in > event#lg: > Mysql::Error: Illegal mix of collations > (latin1_swedish_ci,IMPLICIT) and (utf8_general_ci,COERCIBLE) for > operation ''='': select * from locations where country = ''HU'' and > geo_state = ''08'' and city

Hi, I have some seed data in MySql which contains non-ASCII characters (as you''d imagine as these are worldwide placenames that I''m storing). In MySql on the command line they look great, they''re all formatted perfectly, including Arabic and Chinese characters and they look great. However, when I ask my Rails model for one of these fields, and render that in the

Currently I'm using user_query = SELECT 1000 AS uid, 1000 AS gid, '/srv/vmail/%2.256Hu/%Lu' AS home, ... so I'm hashing based on %u (basically). But in my SQL db I have a "unique_identifier" field, which never changes, even when the user is changing his/her email address (due to marriage or the like). What I'd really like to do is to use %u to find the value of the

Hi all, I am trying to configure utf8 in mysql under centos6 to display special characters, like accents. I use this mysql instance to store plain syslog logs. I have configured this under my.cnf: [mysqld] init_connect = 'SET collation_connection = utf8_general_ci' init_connect = 'SET NAMES utf8' character-set-server = utf8 collation-server = utf8_general_ci [client]

Hi, I''ve got an error when I upload a record by iPhone with Chinese character. Processing ScoresController#create (for 123.204.56.133 at 2009-08-04 16:19:52) [POST] Parameters: {"score"=>{"score"=>"79.60", "player_name"=>"一", "iphone_identifier"=>"6b194f783d645ba1a7c30c0e31b1b67300eb0a25"},

Any thoughts on how to avoid this problem? Already tried: 1. Setting the charset and collation in migration 001 - no effect: def self.up db_name = ActiveRecord::Base::connection.current_database() execute "ALTER DATABASE #{db_name} CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_bin" end 2. Setting the charset and collation on each table individually - no effect:

Hi! I need to generate some JS from Ruby. This is no AJAX related stuff so RJS templates are not help to me. Also I want to not mix JS with HTML, so putting JS in .rhtml templates is no go for me. Currently I made some action in controller, prepared JS code and I''m sending it via send_data as ''text/javascript''. In .rhtml templates I use <script> tag with src

I am switching to a composite primary key (string and user ID) from the Rails conventional auto-incrementing integer primary ID. The table is large (2.5 million records) and I''d rather not discard the contents. The composite_primary_key gem doesn''t appear to support altering the table with a migration to do its magic, only creating a table from scratch. So I dumped the table

Hi! I''m upgrading existing app from Rails 1.2.6 to 2.1.2. I have encountered following problem with AR objects.

Hi! I''m observing some problems using gem inside Rails. My understanding is that after following sequence in irb: $ irb irb(main):001:0> require ''rubygems'' => true irb(main):002:0> require ''active_record'' => true irb(main):003:0> gem ''acts_as_taggable'' => true I should have access to acts_as_tagable mixins, like:

Does anyone know a good authentication tutorial they can suggest? I''ve tried several restful authentication ones and an authlogic one on RailsCast. But with each one I try, something seems to be missing in the tutorial and I can''t get it to work. I''m new to Rails so it''s possible user error on my part. I''m on Mac OS X 10.5 and I generate all my apps in

One issue left for me to figure out is that in different languages there are different characters and Xapian takes only english characters. Thefore many word entered by users that contains their own language special characters will not return any result. MySQL offers different collations ... Now when I see how much data Xapian can search perhaps I could expand my index spider different European

Hello, I want to change the connection collation that rails uses but I''m unsure of exactly what the best way to do this is. Everything in MySQL - the server, database and all tables are set to utf8_unicode_ci collation, but the connection collation in rails still appears to be utf8_general_ci (the default?). We are using the mysql2 adapter. I''ve seen a couple of possible

If I call .create on the param structure, are the parameters being passed to the create method automatically sanitized for me? e.g. Journalentry.create(param[:journalentry]) Do I have to worry about any malicious scripting making its way into the creation of the record?

[crossposted to -stable and -i18n, replies directed to -stable] Hi everyone, could someone point me to infos regarding Unicode collation support in FreeBSD? All I could find was https://wiki.freebsd.org/KonradJankowski/Collation but that page has not been changed in more than two years. Looking at sources of -current it doesn't look like those changes made it into the source tree yet.

Dear List, consider the following scenario: setClass(Class = "A", representation = representation(B = "B", C = "C")) setClass(Class = "B", representation = representation(C = "C")) setClass(Class = "C", representation = representation(something = "character")) Obviously, the collation for sourcing these defs needs to be: C,

Not sure if this is off topic, but there doesn''t seem to be an obvious place to ask this question. I am trying to use MacPorts to install mysql. I have xcode 3.0 and x11 XQuartz 2.1.6 installed. $PATH: /opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/ local/bin:/usr/X11/bi When I sudo port install mysql5-server I receive: ---> Configuring mysql5 Error: Target

The following caused a hard-to-diagnose problem for a user of the survey package. Presumably this is a strange Unicode thing, but is there a convenient reference for how the collation order is determined? I am surprised that adding the same character to the end of two strings of the same length can change the sorting order. in en_US.utf8 locale > "1//"<"10/" [1]
