Mac系统上修改MySQL字符集

本文主要介绍了如何修改MAC版mysql默认字符集为utf8,如果你的MAC版mysql字符乱码，可以参考一下这篇文章

1.检查默认安装的mysql的字符集

mysql> show variables like '%char%';

这时候普遍返回的字符集如下：

+--------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
| 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/local/mysql-5.5.23-osx10.6-x86_64/share/charsets/ |
+--------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
8 rows in set (0.00 sec)

character_set_database和character_set_server依然是latin1的字符集，也就是说mysql后续创建的表都是latin1字符集的，不是utf8，会造成一些麻烦。所以有必要修改my.cnf，在修改my.cnf之前一定要关闭mysql进程，不然会遇到mysql的sock不能连接的问题。

2.关闭mysqld后台进程

• 系统偏好设置中在其他选项中找到mysql的选项点击
• 点击 Stop MySQL Server 关闭mysql服务

3.修改mysql配置文件/etc/my.cnf

sudo cp /usr/local/mysql/support-files/my-medium.cnf /etc/my.cnf

sudo vi /etc/my.cnf

[client]部分加入：

default-character-set=utf8

[mysqld]部分加入：

character-set-server=utf8

修改完毕之后再启动mysql
4.检查结果

mysql> show variables like '%char%';
+--------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
| 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/local/mysql-5.5.23-osx10.6-x86_64/share/charsets/ |
+--------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------+
8 rows in set (0.00 sec)

修改完成！
