MySQL character set ascii unknown

[Kimosabi]

Hi all,

I had a problem recently where it looks like mysql has been upgraded through apt accidentally. this broke a few things which I was able to sort out, but then I noticed that roundcube stopped working and I could see the database in phpmyadmin but it had 0 tables. Any attempt to look at the database resulted in a mysql crash (which would restart mysql)

So now I am trying to import a backup of the roundcube database into a new database in the same mysql server and I am getting an error about unknown charset ascii.

Does anyone have any tips or if someone is available to provide paid support I would seriously consider that option as well?

Regards,
Kim

Hello,

You'd better remove MySQL versions installed with apt. And reinstall it with custombuild.

Please, do forum searching in order to get detailed information. There is at least a couple of good threads on the topic.
