Can you elaborate on what is wrong with the mapping of CP1251 to win1251? What version of the server are you using?

I use MySQL 5.0.10a-beta under WindowsXP.

After connect Connector/J send command "SET NAMES win1251".
This cause error 1115: "Unknown character set: 'win1251'". You may check this easily. Right command is "SET NAMES cp1251".

As I know MySQL don't have win1251 character set, only cp1251.
