Hi Kristof, <b>Update</b> Ah, OK - I understand it now! The last step merely offers me all the MySQL DBs on my system! It would - given the root access! I have now added a database user restricted to one DB and now I only get one DB offered on the last page. OK - so no bug in the installer, but maybe the docs should be updated to make this fact more obvious? Plenty of people will simply opt for "root" when asked, and then will choose databases that are already in use on their system! What do you think? <b>end of update</b> Thanks for the rapid reply. I'm not sure what you mean by "creating a new database". I have simply entered the database (root account) access details on the page in the wizard - at no point have I been asked to create a database. On the last page of the wizard the wizard asks me to choose a sample database for the ezpublish site. It seems to be *these* databases that are not in UTF8 - or I am mistaken somewhere? I would have no problem creating a database, since I am a fairly experienced MySQL admin - but the wizard seems to want to create (or import) the databases itself. And I of course have no idea where these databases actually are! For reference, the databases are called: "cdcol", "phpmyadmin", "test" and "webauth". The MySQL I am running, 5.0.51, has full UTF8 support as far as I can see. Hope this helps you resolve my query! Many thanks, Ed Bradburn
