wma Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 After moving the Invision Community System to a new webhost (according to this document) some posts now contain random characters instead of the "original" characters. For example: Â instead of a line break. This does not occur when creating new posts. How can I solve this problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solution wma Posted December 7, 2021 Author Solution Share Posted December 7, 2021 The previous export was made using a windows sql client. The problem was resolved by using WSL and the usual mysqldump/mysql utility. SeNioR- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
