[stable34] fix(db): update MySQL collation recommendation to utf8mb4_bin#14959
Merged
Conversation
The server uses utf8mb4_bin in both Setup/MySQL.php (database creation) and Repair/Collation.php (migration). The docs were recommending utf8mb4_general_ci which contradicts actual server behavior. Update both the my.cnf snippet and CREATE DATABASE example. Fixes #1565 Signed-off-by: John Molakvoæ (skjnldsv) <skjnldsv@protonmail.com>
