Subject: UTF-8 string is broken
An UTF-8 string saved to the TEXT field of the DB and then retrieved is broken (some characters are replaced with nonsense). I'm not sure whether it is bug of MySQL or of Perl's DBI. How to repeat: Use the table and the Perl program from the attachment or from the following archive. http://portonvictor.org/misc/sqlbug.zip Note that Perl code is in UTF-8 encoding. See also MySQL bug #36043 - http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=36043

Message body not shown because it is not plain text.

The DBI is agnostic towards utf-8. It's the responsibility of the driver to 'do the right thing'. Please submit the report to the DBD::mysql RT queue. Thanks.
