We're sorry, but the bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking help on using MySQL products. Your problem is not the result of a bug. Support on using our products is available both free in our forums at http://forums.mysql.com and for a reasonable fee direct from our skilled support engineers at http://www.mysql.com/support/ Thank you for your interest in MySQL. Additional info: hint: collations are only valid for a single character set, the password field seems to be using latin1 as charset here, so only latin1_... collations are valid for it but not e.g. utf8_... collations
