Problem from 4.6.5 to 4.7.1 with spanish name users

When I upgrade from 4.6.5 to 4.7.1 I get this error because my users table has those names:

jesus

Jesús

user warning: Duplicate entry 'Jesús' for key 2 query: ALTER TABLE users CHANGE `name` `name` varchar(60) CHARACTER SET utf8 DEFAULT '' NOT NULL, CHANGE `pass` `pass` varchar(32) CHARACTER SET utf8 DEFAULT '' NOT NULL, CHANGE `mail` `mail` varchar(64) CHARACTER SET utf8 DEFAULT '' NULL, CHANGE `theme` `theme` varchar(255) CHARACTER SET utf8 DEFAULT '' NOT NULL, CHANGE `signature` `signature` varchar(255) CHARACTER SET utf8 DEFAULT '' NOT NULL, CHANGE `timezone` `timezone` varchar(8) CHARACTER SET utf8 DEFAULT '' NULL, CHANGE `language` `language` varchar(12) CHARACTER SET utf8 DEFAULT '' NOT NULL, CHANGE `picture` `picture` varchar(255) CHARACTER SET utf8 DEFAULT '' NOT NULL, CHANGE `init` `init` varchar(64) CHARACTER SET utf8 DEFAULT '' NULL, CHANGE `data` `data` longtext CHARACTER SET utf8 DEFAULT '' NULL in /var/www/drupal465/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 120.
I want to migrate my drupal 4.6.5 installed over mysql 4.0 to a new server with mysql 4.1

First I have migrated my 4.6.5 drupal database over mysql 4.0 to a new mysql 4.1. Later I have upgraded to drupal 4.7.1

Could be it caused because my old 4.6.5 version was with LATIN1 and now with UTF8? I'm not sure what I'm talking about.

These problem was found while I was making tests for the migration. I would like to finish the migration these week and I think I could be usefull to solve this little BUG. Where should I publish this issue?

identifying drupal 4.6.7 upgradation for the site

Hi,
I've upgraded a site based on drupal 4.6.5 to 4.6.7 as maintioned on website.It's done properly and it's working properly.Now I want to know if website has been upgraded exactly or not(running on privious version).is there any way to know that.I checked for changelog.txt after uploading drupal 4.6.7.it shows me last version of 4.6.7 but as we've just copied it,so how I will come to know if my website has been upgraded or not.

Thanks

$is_front not working in 4.7.1

Anybody seem to have the same problem after upgrade?

My snippet that detects if $is_front exists and redirects to a splash page is no longer working.

It appears $is_front no longer works in 4.7.1 ???

Upgrading to 4.7 from 4.6, breaks images in flexinodes. Is there a solution?

I have checked the flexinode project page and there seems to be several problems associated with 4.7 and image fields in flexinode. My issue: the images that are already added to flexinodes through flexinode fields will no longer display (a red X appears). If I try to edit the flexinode, Drupal tells me that I must supply the required image, even though one has already been uploaded. If I try to upload a new image, however, it still won't upload a new image and still gives me the message that the image is required.

4.7 and search module - reindex and no work on page not found

Note, when I upgraded from 4.6.x to 4.7 then patch for 4.7.1
I noticed that after turning back on the search module, it was not indexed.
Just selecting the index button under administer->settings->search
was not enough, had to hit the cron.php a couple times to make sure it reindexes...
that was adequate.

However I noticed something else weird...

Many warnings and sql fail while updating drupal

Hi,
So I'm in fact using cvs version of drupal. I installed drupal from cvs just a week ago, I haven't done any update till now.

Then I went on the update.php page, and so I see I need to update the system module. In the drowndown box, by default is selected 110. And in the dropdown I can choose between 110 and 182. As I installed drupal from cvs just a week ago, it seems strange I have to update from 110.

So I tried the update (I made a database copy before), but then I have many warnings, and some queries failed. So I made a rollback to recover my backup database.

Below the result of the query, beware it is quite long...

Thanks
