Thanks very much,

So, trying to follow directions posted in thread :
"RT at a Glance HASH ref error during upgrade from 3.4 to 3.8",
I am reloading my RT 3.2.1/mysql 4.0.20 database in the new
RT 3.8.0/mysql 5.0.45. to do again the upgrade procedure.

If I understood well, steps are :

a) save DB on old server :

mysqldump -u rt_user -p xxx --single-transaction --databases rt3 > dump

b) reload DB on new server :

mysql -u root -p < dump

c) launch mysql upgrade script : etc/upgrade/schema.mysql-4.0-4.1.pl

d) update the schema (I suppose the best is with the following) :

/opt/rt3/sbin/rt-setup-database --dba root
--prompt-for-dba-password --action upgrade

Unfortunately the mysql upgrade script fails :

[root]# perl rt-3.8.0/etc/upgrade/schema.mysql-4.0-4.1.pl rt3 rt_user xxxxx
DBD::mysql::db column_info failed: column_info doesn't support column 
selection at rt-3.8.0/etc/upgrade/schema.mysql-4.0-4.1.pl line 227.
DBD::mysql::db column_info failed: column_info doesn't support column 
selection at rt-3.8.0/etc/upgrade/schema.mysql-4.0-4.1.pl line 227.

Also, I am not sure if I have to run this mysql update script ...

I do not know what is the default Mysql character set in 4.0 and
I do not know how to set it in the new Mysql 5.0... The systems both
have locale set to en_US.UTF-8...

Thanks for advices.

JM
