I have no idea what that is, but I can try and help until someone more knowledgeable comes along.

Did you set any of these three lines to something different than the default in your bb-config.php:

define('BBDB_CHARSET', 'utf8');

define('BBDB_COLLATE', '');

define('BB_LANG', '');

 

I found this online:

What is your MySQL version?
