Topic: [SOLVED] Install hotfix -> character 0xe28093 of encoding "UTF8" ...

I'm trying to install the hotfix "removing a notice on updates check." but get the error

An error was encountered

The error occurred on line 186 in */admin/extensions.php

Database reported: ERROR: character 0xe28093 of encoding "UTF8" has no equivalent in "LATIN1" .

Any pointers on how to solve this? The forum runs PunBB 1.3.

That error mean that your database encoding is LATIN1, not UTF-8. You need to change it.

Thanks for the answer. So you have to use UTF-8? LATIN-1 has worked fine until now.

Edit: Nevermind. The database should use UTF-8 but for some reason it's reported as Latin-1. I'll hopefully work it out. smile
