We had some issues where a downstream system was using usernames with diacritics in the URL. This was breaking the downstream system.
The following code may help you find diacritics in your data
/* Example script for how to find diacritical marks/accents in data */ /* Create some example data with and without accents */ DECLARE @exampledata TABLE (exampleString VARCHAR(50)) --has to be varchar INSERT INTO @exampledata ( exampleString ) VALUES (N'Peter'),(N'AURÉLIEN'),(N'JEREMY'),(N'kroužek'),(N'tomato'),(N'voël') /* Temp table for accent insensitive Load with Accent insensitive collation */ DECLARE @insensitive TABLE (exampleString VARCHAR(50)) INSERT INTO @insensitive ( exampleString ) SELECT exampleString Collate SQL_Latin1_General_CP1253_CI_AI FROM @exampledata /* Check for accent sensitive items */ SELECT * FROM @exampledata s WHERE NOT EXISTS ( SELECT 1 FROM @insensitive i WHERE i.exampleString = s.exampleString ) go
