Hi,

Thanks for immediate response Ferdino, however the table we are trying to
backup is of login table with password column((sysname datatype), which is
giving conversion issue due to cipher text.

Please suggest if there is any alternate way to backup as we already applied
utf-8 and failed with the fix.

Regards,
Vasanth

Usually this is an indication of:
- you are not uring libiconv;
- the client charset is not able to handle some server character (try utf-8);
- your database contains some garbage.

Are you able to understand which data has the issue?
