Defect #857

non english strings size
0%
Description
When non-english language is being used (for example Russian) there is the following bug:
For example when trying to add/edit issue category and put more than 15 russian chars value is truncated to 30 bytes. Because every char in UTF-8 is encoded by 2 bytes string visually truncated to 15 symbols. Probably database field has size 30.
But if you have odd number of 1-byte symbols there is side-effect. 1 byte is being cutted off from last 2-bytes symbol that might damage html pages. Example of "bad" string is
абвгдеёжзи клмнопрстуф
(it is russian alphabet)

Actually, I have Redmine 0.7-svn and UTF-8 aware MySQL and I can't reproduce your error. I think this bug appear when using latin1 MySQL database, or other 8-bit encoding limitations.
