Drupal: Upgrade Notes
Been upgrading from an old Drupal 4.5 (aka Civicspace 82) to Drupal 5.1.
Dropping CiviCRM
I had to get rid of the unused civicrm tables. Installing it seemed like a good idea at the time, but no point of using it for a tiny campaign. Here's a script that will delete the tables. It's posted here because the InnoDB engine complains if you drop these in the wrong order, and violate some constraints.

mysql -u username -pPassword database_name < file_containing_the_text_from_aboveUTF8
I wanted to update the system to use utf8 all over the place. Here's a script that will convert a database in latin9, or whatever other character set, and turn it into the utf8 character set with utf8_general_ci collation:
#! /usr/bin/perl
use DBI;
if (! $ARGV[0]) {
print("usage: fix_collation <database>\n");
exit;
}
$database = $ARGV[0];
our $dsn = "DBI:mysql:database=$database;host=localhost";
our $dbh = DBI->connect($dsn, 'root', 'rootpass');
our $resultar = $dbh->selectall_arrayref('SHOW TABLES');
map {
my $table = ${$_}[0];
my $sql = "ALTER TABLE `$table` CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci";
$dbh->do($sql);
} @$resultar;
