Hi Matheiu,

I'm assuming your language settings are French? There could be something in the SQL that is causing a collation error...

"running  MySQL query SELECT table_name, character_set_name, collation_name FROM information_schema.COLUMNS WHERE table_schema = '<db_name>' AND collation_name != 'utf8_bin'; 

I then created the conversion sql to an output file 

select CONCAT('ALTER TABLE ',  table_name, ' CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_bin;') INTO OUTFILE '/tmp/collation.sql' from information_schema.columns where table_schema='<db_name>' and collation_name !='utf8_bin' group by table_name;

I then ran the file against the database and all columns were converted."

Not sure if this helps, but it's a start.
