[PHP-DEV] PHP 4.0 Bug #8766: couldn't connect to MySQL server which has default character set cp1251 From: crazy50s <email protected>
Date: 01/17/01

From: crazy50s <email protected>
Operating system: FreeBSD 3.3
PHP version: 4.0 Latest CVS (17/01/2001)
PHP Bug Type: MySQL related
Bug description: couldn't connect to MySQL server which has default character set cp1251

FreeBSD 3.3 -RELEASE
Apache/1.3.14
PHP 4.0.5-dev compiled as DSO --with-mysql --with-apxs

MYSQL 3.23.30
compiled with
--default-character-set = cp1251 (this is charset #14 in /usr/local/mysql/share/mysql/charsets/Index)

have no problem connecting to it from mysql/mysqladmin clients

when trying to mysql_connect() from PHP script, got this error message
...MySQL Connection Failed: Can't initialize character set 14 (path: default)....

installing PHP 4.0.3pl1 solved the problem :)

for description of this bug (or maybe feature) by another user

I find it amusing that 4.0.4 and 4.0.4pl1 do not work because of bug #8738... and 4.0.5-dev (CVS snapshot) doesn't work either because of this.

thanks
