Search case sensitiv

Hi RT Users.

after upgrading to 3.8.1 the search for ticket content is case sensitiv.

To solve this problem (for us) any hint would be appreciated.

Best regards

I’m guessing you are using utf8_bin collation, the others are case
insensitive. Unfortunately non binary utf8 ones aren’t accent sensitive
so it lacks a bit compared to latin1 which offers both. If accents
aren’t a major concern you should be using like utf8_unicode_ci or
utf8_general_ci or swedish … they all have slightly different rules for
sorting.

Hi Curtis,
thx for your quick reply.

Our rt (3.8.1) is an upgrade from rt 3.6.7.

On the “old” RT the table options for the table

“Attachments” are Character Set is “cp1252 West European”
and the collation is “latin1_swedish_ci”.

The Column “Content” is a LONGTEXT (Character Set cp1252 West European).On the “new” RT “Attachments” are Character Set UTF-8 Unicode and the collation is utf8_general_ci. But the Column “Content” was changed to “LONGBLOB”, no special CharSet or Collation. IMHO a collation attribute change doesn’t help us. Do you know another way to make search in RT case in sensitive?
