Last week I migrated my db in another platform. I did a mysqldump export from phpmyadmin panel and then I imported it in a new platform using the bigdump script. The sql dump file that I have imported was originally stored in a db that was setting in this manner:
MySQL charset: UTF-8 Unicode (utf8)
MySQL connection collation: utf8_unicode_ci
I exported the db choosing utf8 character set but if I look inside the mysqldump file for every table appears: DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1
Now I have a problem with the accented letter (like à, è, ò, ì) that are displayed like ò , Ã...etc. For manage my new db I use MySQL Workbench and if i prompt: show variables like 'char%'; I see that all the values are set in utf8. How can I solve the problem? I'm not a Mysql and db expert!
