Restore backup on different server has other character encoding.

[Manie]

Hi all,

Anyone ever encountered this?

1. I created a backup from a directory containing this file:
[root@vps3 public_html]# file -bi index.php
text/html

2. When restored on a different server this is the encoding:
[root@vps1 public_html]# file -bi index.php
text/html; charset=iso-8859-1

Default system locale is in UTF-8.
Is this some sort of backup restore functionality that converts files into iso-8859-1?
I have no clue howto proceed to fix this so any insights would be greatly appreciated!

Best regards,
Armand

Small note: this results in characters becoming unreadable (question-marks)
