Modify the character set encoding of MySQL5.6 in Linux to UTF8 (to solve Chinese garbled characters)
1. log on to MySQL and use show variables like 'character % '. the following character set is displayed:
+--------------------------+----------------------------+| 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/ |+--------------------------+----------------------------+
The default character set of character_set_database and character_set_server is latin1.
2. the simplest and perfect modification method is to modify the character set key value in mysql's my. cnf File (pay attention to the configuration field details ):
1. add default-character-set = utf8 to the [client] field, as shown below: [client] port = 3306 socket =/var/lib/mysql. sockdefault-character-set = utf82. add character-set-server = utf8 to the [mysqld] field, as shown below: [mysqld] port = 3306 socket =/var/lib/mysql. sockcharacter-set-server = utf83. add default-character-set = utf8 to the [mysql] field, as shown below: [mysql] no-auto-rehashdefault-character-set = utf8
After the modification, the service mysql restart restarts the mysql service to take effect. Note: The [mysqld] field is different from the [mysql] field. No one has reported this on the Internet.
Use show variables like 'character % '; check that the database encoding has been changed to utf8.
+--------------------------+----------------------------+| 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/ |+--------------------------+----------------------------+
