switching hosts and lost Chinese, what files could I check

Good Morning,

Modx95, latest versions php,sql

I just transfered modx to another server and everything looked ok until reading the Chinese translation. The English looks ok, but the Chinese version has random question marks insterted throughout the text that were not there on the old server. So something got switched around in the transfer.

Also when I log into manager I can not see the TinyMCE rich text editor for either English or Chinese.

Imagine it might have something to do with the SQL dump but can not figure it out. Tried numerous things such as importing the DB another way, and crosschecking the different files to see if something was missing...but haven’t found anything.

Has anyone come across this situation and have any advice?

Thanks a bunch
Derek

This is probably just a character encoding issue. Check that the database and MODx are set to use the right encoding for your text. If you updated to 0.9.6 and didn’t choose a character encoding when you ran the install you may find that reinstalling and choosing to enter the database connection info when upgrading helps (this adds character encoding vars to your config file).
