russcoleridge Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 I've successfully moved our test v5 store from a managed web hosting server to an unmanaged VPS, in an effort to get v5 running quicker (so for so good on this score). My current issue is character encoding, which manifests in GBP symbols and other special characters displaying incorrectly. Checking phpinfo() for the managed host (which works correctly) and the VPS, the line I suspect is relevant is: - Managed host - SQLite > SQLite Encoding > UTF-8 - VPS - SQLite > SQLite Encoding > iso8859 I'm guessing I need to change the encoding on the VPS, but can't seem to find any way to do it. Can it be done with the php ini file? Russell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russcoleridge Posted June 26, 2013 Author Share Posted June 26, 2013 **Issue resolved** It was much more straight forward than I thought, and nothing to do with SQLite encoding, ini.php files, etc. Going into: Admin > Dashboard > Settings > Currencies, the 'Symbol Left' for GBP had somehow become corrupted in the move and was displaying as a '?' in a black diamond. Replacing this with the correct '£' GBP symbol has instantly solved the issue. Russell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
