mysql - 如何修改my.conf支持utf8

找找/usr/share/mysql/my.cnf，没有的话用find命令查找一下：

sudo find / -name my.cnf

或者查看进程信息查看加载了哪个配置文件

cat /proc/$(pidof mysqld)/cmdline | tr '\0' '\n'

mysql可以在启动命令上加上 --defaults-file='path/to/my.cnf' 指定按照某个配置文件进行启动

这个设置对了么？

character_set_server=utf8

14.04用sudo apt-get install mysql-server是存在文件/etc/mysql/my.cnf的.
/usr/bin/mysql --help|grep -B 1 /etc/mysql/my.cnf
Default options are read from the following files in the given order:
/etc/my.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf /usr/etc/my.cnf ~/.my.cnf
后面的优先级更高,建议只保留一个配置文件/etc/mysql/my.cnf.

#
# The MySQL database server configuration file.
#
# You can copy this to one of:
# - "/etc/mysql/my.cnf" to set global options,
# - "~/.my.cnf" to set user-specific options.
# 
# One can use all long options that the program supports.
# Run program with --help to get a list of available options and with
# --print-defaults to see which it would actually understand and use.

# For explanations see

# This will be passed to all mysql clients

apt-get download mysql-common 下载这个包,里面有个这个文件.
在配置里的[mysqld]下加入:
character_set_server=utf8
另外,注意创建数据库和表时也指定编码:

CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS mybase DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci;
USE mybase;
CREATE TABLE `posts` (
    `id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
    `post_title` varchar(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
    `post_content` text,
    PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=0 DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

连接数据库时也制定编码,比如PHP:

<?php
$dsn = "mysql:dbname=$app[db_name];host=$app[db_host];port=$app[db_port];charset=utf8";
$dbh = new PDO($dsn, $app['db_username'], $app['db_password'], array(
    PDO::ATTR_PERSISTENT => $app['db_pconnect'],
    PDO::ATTR_EMULATE_PREPARES => false,
    PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_INIT_COMMAND => 'SET NAMES utf8'
));

页面输出也指定UTF-8编码:

<?php
header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8');
?>
<meta charset="utf-8">

编辑器和IDE里也使用UTF-8编码,统一下来后就不会乱码了.
