Re: Enabling Multibyte in postgresql / drupal Mac OS X Leopard stack

[Andreas Wenk <a(dot)wenk(at)netzmeister-st-pauli(dot)de>]

Hi Jerone,

I am running a MAC Leopard 10.5.5. Installed is the entropy php / 
postgresql package. I just added the following lines to one of the vhost 
container:

php_value mbstring.func_overload 7

After restarting apache and calling mb_get_info(), I recieve this result:

Array
(
    [internal_encoding] => ISO-8859-1
    [http_input] =>
    [http_output] => pass
    [func_overload] => 7
    [func_overload_list] => Array
        (
            [mail] => mb_send_mail
            [strlen] => mb_strlen
            [strpos] => mb_strpos
            [strrpos] => mb_strrpos
            [stripos] => mb_stripos
            [strripos] => mb_strripos
            [strstr] => mb_strstr
            [strrchr] => mb_strrchr
            [stristr] => mb_stristr
            [substr] => mb_substr
            [strtolower] => mb_strtolower
            [strtoupper] => mb_strtoupper
            [substr_count] => mb_substr_count
            [ereg] => mb_ereg
            [eregi] => mb_eregi
            [ereg_replace] => mb_ereg_replace
            [eregi_replace] => mb_eregi_replace
            [split] => mb_split
        )

    [mail_charset] => UTF-8
    [mail_header_encoding] => BASE64
    [mail_body_encoding] => BASE64
    [illegal_chars] => 0
    [encoding_translation] => Off
    [language] => neutral
    [detect_order] => Array
        (
            [0] => ASCII
            [1] => UTF-8
        )

    [substitute_character] => 63
    [strict_detection] => Off
)

Means, it works.

I don't think that your problem is a drupal /mediawiki with postgresql 
problem, but an apache php problem.

Do you have a mbstring entry when you call phpinfo() ?

Again, I don't know if that helps. It's just a hint that it works on my MAC.

Cheers

Andy
