Database connection problem?

[ramon]

Hello all,

I'm testing OCS on the same server I run OJS for testing.
I have made 3 installations, one with the translator plugin, one with a previous version (OCS 2.0.0-0) and one with OCS 2.0.0-1.

I'm running into a strange character problem with Item 1.1 Conference Description of Step 1 About the conference.

Even though I have UTF-8 set for everything (db collation, connection and browser, as well as server config for the folder) special characters are not being displayed.
What should be:

Code: Select all

teste para configuração e correção da tradução

Is displayed:

Code: Select all

teste para configura??o e corre??o da tradu??o

I changed persistent connections to off, changed the settings for the folder and restarted apache, but nothing happened.

This is the directory setting in a .acl file:

Code: Select all

php_value default_charset "utf-8"
php_value output_buffering On
php_value session.auto_start Off
php_value error_reporting 2039
php_value memory_limit 32M

Any ideas??
OJS runs okay on the same server... but it's in a different folder, with settings just like that.

Hi Ramón,

See http://pkp.sfu.ca/support/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1909 -- the work-around involving commenting out several lines of code is the best solution for the moment; this will, of course, be fixed with the next release (which we expect will be November or December).

Thanks Alec,

Comenting lines 93 to 108 in class/form/Form.inc.php solved the problem.
