$sudo vi /etc/mysql/my.cnf
[client] 下添加default-character-set=utf8
$mysql -u root -p
Enter password:
mysql> show variables like 'character%';
+--------------------------+----------------------------+
| Variable_name | Value |
+--------------------------+----------------------------+
| character_set_client | utf8 |
| character_set_connection | utf8 |
| character_set_database | latin1 |
| character_set_filesystem | binary |
| character_set_results | utf8 |
| character_set_server | latin1 |
| character_set_system | utf8 |
| character_sets_dir | /usr/share/mysql/charsets/ |
+--------------------------+----------------------------+
8 rows in set (0.00 sec)
character_set_database和character_set_server的编码还是继承自编译的
直接修改上述配置文件:[mysqld]下添加default-character-set=utf8
$sudo service mysql restart
mysql stop/waiting
start: Job failed to start
服务竟然起不来
升级ubuntu12.04以后才第一次碰到
最简单的办法是只要在[mysqld]下再加两条配置即可：加上之后如下
default-storage-engine=INNODB
character-set-server=utf8
collation-server=utf8_general_ci
$sudo service mysql start
mysql start/running, process 22704
$mysql -u root -p
Enter password:
mysql> show variables like 'character%';
+--------------------------+----------------------------+
| Variable_name | Value |
+--------------------------+----------------------------+
| character_set_client | utf8 |
| character_set_connection | utf8 |
| character_set_database | utf8 |
| character_set_filesystem | binary |
| character_set_results | utf8 |
| character_set_server | utf8 |
| character_set_system | utf8 |
| character_sets_dir | /usr/share/mysql/charsets/ |
+--------------------------+----------------------------+
8 rows in set (0.01 sec)
编码就顺利改掉了。
