Before 1 months ago, i was using appserv.
Then i started to use xampp.
But appserv didnt have this problem.

in XAMPP, when i create database in phpmyadmin
it choose collation latin1_swedish_ci.

WHY IT CHOOSE LATIN1_SWEDISH_CI?!

In appserv, when i create database in phpmyadmin, collation was always utf8_general_ci
WHAT IS WRONG?!?

WHAT IS WRONG?!?

Nothing is wrong.
--> "appserv" is just using another default character-set/collation then XAMPP (which is using the MySQL default, aka latin1_swedish_ci).
