Jira issue originally created by user mjh_ca:

Two small corrections to http://www.doctrine-project.org/documentation/manual/2_0/en/dbal:configuration:dbal-events#postconnect-event

There should be a semi-colon after new EventManager() instead of a comma
* The parameter to the MysqlSessionInit constructor should be UTF8 and not UTF-8. The parameter with the dash causes a PDOException:

  SQLSTATE[42000]: Syntax error or access violation: 1115 Unknown character set: 'UTF'

Corrected code:

<?php

$evm = new EventManager();
$evm->addEventSubscriber(new MysqlSessionInit('UTF8'));

$conn = DriverManager::getConnection($connectionParams, null, $evm);
