Hello,

I'm using SS 2.4 and I have set the _config.php file to send errors to my email. All websites are working just fine but I frequetly receive this character set related error:

Error: Couldn't run query: SET CHARACTER SET 'utf8'
At line 525 in /home/perlesah/public_html/sapphire/core/model/MySQLDatabase.php

      user_error(Couldn't run query: SET CHARACTER SET 'utf8' ,256) line 525 of MySQLDatabase.php MySQLDatabase->databaseError(Couldn't run query: SET CHARACTER SET 'utf8' | ,256) line 123 of MySQLDatabase.php MySQLDatabase->query(SET CHARACTER SET 'utf8') line 60 of MySQLDatabase.php MySQLDatabase->__construct(Array) line 97 of DB.php DB::connect(Array) line 121 of main.php 

I have this in _config.php :

MySQLDatabase::set_connection_charset('utf8');

any idea what do to fix this?

thanks

I've been experiencing the same error, but it appears its only when a search engine spider hits the site, normal browsing appears fine...

Also getting the error, but intermittently. Currently unsure if it's because of spiders as AdamJ above.

Has anyone found a solution to this issue? Or any SS devs care to weigh in on some possible issues at play?
