Hi, I've purchased a license of MySql Backup and started scheduling some backups for my MySql databases, hosted in a Win2008 R2 server. The schedule works fine, zip files are created and sent to the FTP server, and I get notifications by email.
Anyway, if I open a dump created by this process I can see that the original text of the database has been corrupted as if the Unicode (utf8) encoding of the original data was interpreted as Latin1. For instance, here is a text fragment: it was:
"è il canto del"
but it has been saved as:
"è il canto del"
Anyway, if I manually dump the database using MySql Workbench I can read a well-formed UTF8 dump text file with the correct text.
Could anyone give a hint?
