I have gone through the view&amp;#39;s and relevant tables and they don&amp;#39;t all have the same collation, they do match the other environments which didn&amp;#39;t suffer the same problem. Is there anything else i can do?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: #1267 - illegal mix of collations</title><link>https://community.appian.com/thread/80170?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 10 Mar 2021 15:09:45 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">d3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:979c848c-1f5a-4747-8d22-91ddfab8d19d</guid><dc:creator>Carlos Santander</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Check this article to see if there are problems with the underlying tables:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://interworks.com/blog/bbausili/2010/01/11/mysql-fixing-illegal-mix-collation"&gt;https://interworks.com/blog/bbausili/2010/01/11/mysql-fixing-illegal-mix-collation&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If the tables all turn out with the same collation, maybe try casting or converting hardcoded values, as mentioned in this answer:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/37275524"&gt;https://stackoverflow.com/a/37275524&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
