This page last changed on Jun 18, 2009 by rosie@atlassian.com.
Setting up a MySQL 4.1 database with JIRA to work with non-ASCII (non-English) charactersPlease do the following:
Please ensure that you create a new database using the correct character set and ensure that JIRA creates all its tables on startup without problems. This should allow you to work with all characters supported by Unicode, which covers most characters out there. Please ensure that you are using the latest MySQL JDBC driver: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/3.1.html Also please ensure you are using the UTF-8 character encoding in JIRA (Administration -> Global Settings -> General Configuration). |
