I’m getting a strange mysql error: when trying to insert a row into a table that includes the Look Of Disapproval – ಠ_ಠ – I get the following error:
Illegal mix of collations (latin1_swedish_ci,IMPLICIT) and (utf8_general_ci,COERCIBLE) for operation = ‘select…
Sure enough, some of the tables in my database were set to the latin1_swedish_ci collation. I changed all of the tables to utf8_general_ci, but the error persists.
What am I missing?
Collation can also be set at the individual column level.
See: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/charset-collations.html
And: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/create-table.html
