If it really is such a big issue to make these database changes, then maybe the version number should be incremented more (maybe 4 1) to remind people that this is not just a bugfix or small upgrade

BTW, I thought I remember a discussion about the equals sign at the end of the message I could not find the discussion, but the equals sign is still there

Another issue has been with converting current MySQL (in particular - I haven't really looked at SQLite or PostgreSQL) from whatever character set was used, to UTF-8 There's no easy way to do that

There's also the problem with errors, like this:

       Specified key was too long; max key length is 767 bytes

When creating tables  This is directly related to the new charset being set The resolution seems to be to change the schema, to make certain fields a little smaller I talk a little about this, here:

       http://dadamailproject com/support/boards/viewtopic php?f=5&t=1902&p=7211&hilit=too+long#p7211

I also talk about problems with converting the character set:

       http://dadamailproject com/support/boards/viewtopic php?f=4&t=1904&start=0&hilit=CONVERT+TO+CHARACTER+SET+utf8+COLLATE

using something like this SQL:

       ALTER TABLE dada_settings CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_bin;

From my experience, this'll muck up everything that's not Latin1, unfortunately There's a lot about this problem around the intertubes:

With a lot of different things to try, each getting a lot more complex than the first You guys have any insight? :)
