Linux MySQL5.5.34 修改默认字符集

经过验证，该方法可以解决Hibernate 3 + MySQL 中文存储乱码的问题

修改 my.cnf

添加以下语句：

[client]
default-character-set=utf8
[mysqld]
character-set-server=utf8
collation-server=utf8_general_ci
[mysql]
default-character-set=utf8

修改后重启MySQL服务器，然后使用 show variables like 'character_set%'; 查看修改后的设置

mysql> show variables like 'character_set%';
