In my Server Ive installed wamp 2.0i and test my program. I am fetching last name from my table with ñ character and tried printing it and here is the result: PARIÑAS which should be Pariñas

Ive tried running in on my another computer which has wamp 2.4 and its perfectly working.

So I uninstalled Wamp 2.0i in my server and installed wamp 2.4 and run the program yet it produces same result PARIÑAS.

I have also JasperReports that create PDF from my query and the Result from jasperServer is Ok but when I connect to Php the Pariñas turn into Paricas. While in the another computer its perfectly working and I cant figure it why?.

How will I configure My Wamp server to fix this error

Hi,

It's not a Wampserver problem.
It is a charset transliteration problem.

The word "PARIÑAS" is coded into utf-8 in your database that is in byte :
50 41 52 49 C3 91 41 53 ; PARIÑAS
If you show the word extracted from the database in an environment that is not declared UTF-8, but with a different character set, you will see it in the form: PARIÑAS and not PARIÑAS because, in utf-8 the character Ñ is composed with two bytes C3 91 that are represented by two characters à and ‘ with the charset used.

Hi,
It is because the data is not read and computed the same way.
