Linux下MySQL5.6的修改字符集编码为UTF8

一、登录 MYSQL 查看用 SHOW VARIABLES LIKE ‘character%’;下字符集，显示如下： 
+--------------------------+----------------------------+ 
| 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/share/mysql/charsets/ | 
+--------------------------+----------------------------+ 
character_set_database和character_set_server的默认字符集还是latin1。

二、最简单的完美修改方法，修改mysql的 my.cnf 文件中的字符集键值（ 注意配置的字段细节 ）： 
1、在[client]字段里加入default-character-set=utf8，如下： 
[client] 
port = 3306 
socket = /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock 
default-character-set=utf8
2、在[mysqld]字段里加入character-set- server =utf8，如下： 
[mysqld] 
port = 3306 
socket = /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock 
character-set-server=utf8
3、在[mysql]字段里加入default-character-set=utf8，如下： 
[mysql] 
no-auto-rehash 
default-character-set=utf8
修改完成后，service mysql restart重启mysql服务就生效。注意：[mysqld]字段与[mysql]字段是有区别的。这点在网上没人反馈过。

使用SHOW VARIABLES LIKE ‘character%’;查看，发现 数据库 编码全已改成utf8。
