Description of problem: Accidentally I was trying to import a pot file that contains a single multibyte character and mvn zanata:publican-push produces Embedded error: operation returned 500 (Internal Server Error). As a client user this looks like a zanata system error but in fact from the server.log zanata cannot deal with multibyte character. This should be rectified in either way - More appropriate error message in order for user to fix the book. - Zanata supports multibyte characters Caused by: java.sql.SQLException: Incorrect string value: '\xE2\x88\x97, B...' for column 'content' at row 1 at com.mysql.jdbc.SQLError.createSQLException(SQLError.java:1055) The msgstr of the po looks msgid "Xen and the Art of Virtualization, Paul Barham∗, Boris Dragovic.

Was this the same system which was using a latin1 database?
Tested again. My mistake. Sorry for disturbing.
