upload greek in mysql database

hello @icsd11159 - is that a RapidMiner screenshot? I do not recognize those icons.

Scott

This is a screenshot from my database , that writes greek perfect from hltm/php but when i use 'write database' operation they turn into ?????.I use 'execute SQL' with 'SET CHARACTER SET UTF8' but nothing is change .Do you have any idea to fix this ?

Is your RapidMiner display set to Unicode? 

My results are in greek , if that's what you asking

ah ok that makes more sense. Most likely that's an encoding issue. Can you check and see if your system RapidMiner encoding is the same as your database? I can see if your system is ISO-8859-1 and your database is UTF-8, you would have a problem.

Thanks, was just checking by eliminating the first possibility. 

The issue might actually the first one I suspected, the JDBC driver could need an additional connection parameter set as advanced parameters. 

Set useUnicode to yes & characterEncoding to UTF-8

This should resolve it.

Thank you for your reply!

I agree with you and i think that this must be the solution . But when i change the url path it gives me error 

My ManageDatabaseDrivers is like :

Thank you all for your help , i just solve my problem by setting the appropriate connection properties in RapidMiner Studio : via Connections > Manage Database Connections > Advanced and check the 

<SPAN class="str">characterEncoding</SPAN>

and write utf8 in the blank next to it .

 Also must check and  

<SPAN class="str">useEncoding</SPAN>
