And why you surprized on that?
(a non-UTF-8 terminal as Karen mentioned)
It just means that "s" is NOT a valid sequence of bytes of UTF-8 data.
The same case when you're trying to decode (FROM UTF-8) a data
retrieved
from your mysql table.
I don't know MySQL but what if your data got messed and corrupted
after
you applied all those "ALTER...CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET utf8
collate.."
statements against your tables?
If you show to us *a binary/hex representation* of some "French" word
from
your table it could clear up everything.
