[Codestriker-user] mysql error when upgrading 1.9.1 to 1.9.2

[David C. <dcc...@gm...>]

I'm trying to upgrade from 1.9.1 to 1.9.2.  I exploded the tarball.
Then I modified the .conf file to incorporate the changes I had put in
1.9.1, including pointing to the correct db name.  I get the following
error when I try to run codestriker.pl:

DBD::mysql::db selectrow_array failed: Illegal mix of collations
(latin1_swedish_ci,IMPLICIT) and (utf8_general_ci,COERCIBLE) for
operation '=' at
/var/www/codestriker/codestriker-1.9.2/bin/../lib/Codestriker/Model/Topic.pm
line 386.

Obviously, I don't want to lose the data in my current 1.9.1 db.  What
can I do to get it working?
