How-to fix Illegal mix of collations errors in mysql
If you have errors like my example bellow into your postfix logs - you can fix them easy :
warning: mysql:/usr/local/etc/postfix/mysql_virtual_alias_maps.cf: query failed: Illegal mix of collations (latin1_swedish_ci,IMPLICIT) and (utf8mb4_unicode_ci,COERCIBLE) for operation '='
Get the information(status) about all tables in the specific database using command like:
SHOW TABLE STATUS FROM your_db_name;
Then change your database collation to UTF8 is my recommendation using command like that:ALTER DATABASE your_db_name CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci;
Then to change all your tables listed from status command execute multiple times:ALTER TABLE your_tablename_which_is_not_utf8 CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci;
