Description

The update of all components went fine but all german umlauts only in the customs fields (we added some lists) were broken.
The umlauts in the GUI are ok.

If i add another custom field after the update the umlauts in this new field are fine. Even if i edit our lists the edited umlauts are ok. But i don't want to edit a few hundred entries manually and brake database relationships eventually.

The database is (and was before the update) in utf8 format and the umlauts are correctly stored in the DB.

Environment:
Redmine version 2.3.2.stable
Ruby version 2.0.0-p247 (2013-06-27) [x86_64-linux]
Rails version 3.2.13
Environment production
Database adapter Mysql2

UPDATE the relevant table and replace the values (don't know which table it is):
UPDATE TABLE
SET COLUMN = REPLACE(COLUMN,"ß", "ß"),
COLUMN= REPLACE(COLUMN, "ä", "ä")

and so on...

Actions #3

Like i wrote in the Ticket: the umlauts are correctly stored in the database (verified by a DB dump).

We still have no idea where the problem could be.

We solve the problem in this way: we correct the german umlauts in the GUI. Afterwards it works fine
