13103,"""Unknown character set"" during install into database reports successful install.",MECU,barrykooij,"During editing of the wp-config.php, I changed 

{{{

define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
}}}
to
{{{

define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8_general_ci');
}}}
Which I thought was valid.

After clicking ""Install Wordpress"" I got a page full of:
{{{
WordPress database error: [Unknown character set: 'utf8_general_ci']
}}}
And at the bottom, ""Success"" with a login prompt, but nothing was actually created in the database.

I think WP shouldn't report a successful install if the user happened to accidentally change this value (or another) during install as it would cause confusion.

I used a svn checked out version of WP on 2010-04-24 on my local computer using PHP5 and apache2, but I think this is really a problem since 2.6 (or when the current install system was implemented).",defect (bug),assigned,normal,Future Release,Database,3.0,normal,,has-patch,
