OTRS Special Characters

Hi We have OTRS 5 in place at the moment, all is working well except for when we receive emails in from certain users who have the following footer in their emails *Kind Regards / Mit **freundlichen Grüßen / **Freundliche **Grüße** / **Saludos cordiales / **Saygılarımla / **Cordialement* Were working on the assumption that the issue has something to do with the character set, our database is working in UTF8, with the following settings in my.cnf [client] default-character-set=utf8 [mysqld] character-set-server=utf8 The show variables statement shows the following SHOW VARIABLES LIKE "character_set_%"; +--------------------------+----------------------------+ | Variable_name | Value | +--------------------------+----------------------------+ | character_set_client | utf8 | | character_set_connection | utf8 | | character_set_database | utf8 | | character_set_filesystem | binary | | character_set_results | utf8 | | character_set_server | utf8 | | character_set_system | utf8 | | character_sets_dir | /usr/share/mysql/charsets/ | +--------------------------+----------------------------+ So it seems that everything is set to be UTF8 and as such should be able to handle the different character sets. Every time we get a mail in with the special characters we get the following error "There was an error executing Execute() in Kernel::System::Console::Command::Maint::PostMaster::MailAccountFetch: [Thu Feb 11 22:24:12 2016] otrs.Daemon.pl: DBD::mysql::db do failed: Incorrect string value: '\xC4\xB1lar\xC4...' for column 'a_body' at row 1 at /opt/otrs/Kernel/System/DB.pm line 449." I have run out of ideas now and was wondering if anyone might be able to suggest where I could go next, we are running otrs 5.0.3-01 on CentOS release 6.7 (Final) Many thanks, John

Hello John, this sounds like a bug. Could you open an entry at http://bugs.otrs.org please and attach a failing raw email to it please?

Were working on the assumption that the issue has something to do with the character set, our database is working in UTF8, with the following settings in my.cnf
[client] default-character-set=utf8
[mysqld] character-set-server=utf8
The show variables statement shows the following
SHOW VARIABLES LIKE "character_set_%"; +--------------------------+----------------------------+ | Variable_name | Value | +--------------------------+----------------------------+ | character_set_client | utf8 | | character_set_connection | utf8 | | character_set_database | utf8 | | character_set_filesystem | binary | | character_set_results | utf8 | | character_set_server | utf8 | | character_set_system | utf8 | | character_sets_dir | /usr/share/mysql/charsets/ | +--------------------------+----------------------------+
So it seems that everything is set to be UTF8 and as such should be able to handle the different character sets.
Every time we get a mail in with the special characters we get the following error
"There was an error executing Execute() in Kernel::System::Console::Command::Maint::PostMaster::MailAccountFetch: [Thu Feb 11 22:24:12 2016] otrs.Daemon.pl: DBD::mysql::db do failed: Incorrect string value: '\xC4\xB1lar\xC4...' for column 'a_body' at row 1 at /opt/otrs/Kernel/System/DB.pm line 449."
