  • If you upgraded, you should not use the DB_CHARSET and DB_COLLATE in the wp-config.php file.

    Please review Editing wp-config.php.

    i don’t quite understand. pls give more details of how i can fix the problem.

    Please paste your wp-config.php file at http://wordpress.pastebin.ca

    Of course, take out the password value before pasting. Then report that link back here.

    i know what you mean and the problem is already fixed! Thxxxxx!

    Good. Assume you deleted DB_CHARSET and DB_COLLATE from your wp-config.php file.

    Deleting DB_CHARSET and DB_COLLATE works in that I can create Chinese language posts, but everytime I make any new posts I get the error message:

    Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/webhost9/public_html/innovatize/chinese/wp-config.php:43)in /home/webhost9/public_html/innovatize/chinese/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 329

    Other than having to look at this error message, everything else works, i.e. the Chinese language is posted without a problem.

    Yes! I’m so glad (unfortunately) that someone else had this problem!

    I had added DB_CHARSET and DB_COLLATE and then when it showed eoors, I removed and it was fine. However, there really really should be easy-to-find documentation in the install/upgrade file that explains when and how to use DB_CHARSET and DB_COLLATE. Thanks for the link here:

    http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php

    but I didn’t find it before and wish it could have been in an easier spot to locate (like in the distribution of the files…)

    Can you please post your complete wp-config.php at http://wordpress.pastebin.ca/ and report that link back here.

    Thanks.

    One symptom that might point to the solution:

    I uninstalled and then reinstalled the whole WP2.2 again. During the install script process, there is a place to enter the name of the website. I entered the name in Chinese. OK, so far so good.

    When I visit the site for the first time, the Chinese website name displays correctly. But when I try to modify the name via the admin panel, it turns into ????. Any posts in Chinese also only show as ????? ??? ????, both their title and their content.

    Maybe that can give one of you experts a clue?

    Thanks!

    Continuing to test: When I try to make a post after deleting those two lines in the config file, I can post in Chinese BUT everything I do, I get an error code as follows:

    Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/webhost9/public_html/innovatize/chinese/wp-config.php:42) in /home/webhost9/public_html/innovatize/chinese/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 329

    Even though this error code appears, the Chinese post seems to go through and it can be seen on the webpage with no problem.
