[eZ Publish 4] upgrade 3.10.0 site with a latin1 database

Monday 26 November 2007 4:05:28 pm

Hi,

Today I tried to port my 3.10.0 site to eZ Publish 4.
I've got only one major problem with the accents in the XML Block.
For example, the following sentence in 3.10.0 in an XML Block <i>L'envoi d'un en-tête de ce type provoque sous IE un comportement complètement aberrant.</i> is transformed in <i>L'envoi d'un en-tête de ce type provoque sous IE un comportement complètement aberrant.</i> in 4.0beta site.
This problem occurs only in XML Block, others datatypes don't seem to be affected.

Current configuration :
settings/override/i18n.ini.append.php :

<?php /* #?ini charset="iso-8859-1"?
[CharacterSettings]
Charset=iso-8859-1
*/ ?>

and Charset in DatabaseSettings is empty in site.ini.append.php

The XML Block in the database starts with the prologue <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>

Do I need to convert my database to UTF-8 or is there a magical settings ;-) ?
I read [1] but it doesn't seem easy...
