Bug Description

Using Eventum 2.3.3, I create an issue. If the text is en english, everything works fine. When I use different chars, like accents or ç, the issue description is cut. It only shows from the begin to the first foreign characters.

In Config/Config.php:

define('APP_CHARSET', 'ISO-8859-1');

I am working on this. It does not seem a direct bug of Eventum. Now I have checked that it happened in older versions of Eventum. The problem started when I updates PHP to 5.3.12 version. Maybe I changed a PHP configuration, I do not know, or maybe it is only the PHP version.
In any case, Eventum should check that the PHP configuration is right, and that it cannot affect the creating issues feature.

The problem is related with the configuration of [mbstring] in PHP.INI
Changing the parameters I get different results, some of them do not truncate the text saved in the database.
It would be helpful if Eventum has documentation about the desired [mbstring] configuration.

Eventum does not require any mbstring configuration. you should use default php.ini settings

as you did not say which mbstring php.ini setting causes problems can't do any fix in Eventum side either
