This is a “script” to convert your latin1 myisam database to utf8 innodb
Dump the database
mysqldump -u root -p database_to_convert > db.latin1.sql
Make a copy of the dump
cp db.latin1.sql db.utf8.sql
Change any default table charset to be utf8
sed -i 's/DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1/DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8/g' db.utf8.sql
Now, remove all field collations for Latin1
sed -i 's/COLLATE=latin1_general_ci//g' db.utf8.sql
Change any MyISAM engines to InnoDB
sed -i 's/ENGINE=MyISAM/ENGINE=InnoDB/g' db.utf8.sql
Re-import the database
mysql -u root -p database_to_convert < db.utf8.sql
And thats it.
