关于mysql在linux下乱码问题的解决
mysql的乱码问题一直比较头痛,由于它默认的字符集是latin,在数据库中执行mysql>SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'character_set_%';
+--------------------------+----------------------------+
| Variable_name            | Value                      |
+--------------------------+----------------------------+
| character_set_client     | latin                        |
| character_set_connection | latin                        |
| character_set_database   | latin                        |
| character_set_filesystem | binary                     |
| character_set_results    | latin                        |
| character_set_server     | latin                        |
| character_set_system     | utf8                       |
| character_sets_dir       | /usr/share/mysql/charsets/ |

　　一般我们开发的系统都会用到需要显示中文的情况,网页一般就会设置成GBK,比如页面开头都会写上(以jsp为例子):

　　要保证不乱码,要确保从数据库到页面显示采用统一的字符集,网上很多都建议采用统一的UTF-8来处理,根据我的实践发现,这样做的唯一缺点,就是很多mysql的前台工具好象对UTF-8支持的有问题,比如我用的EMS SQL Manager 2005 for MySql,我将所有的都设置成UTF-8后,它对于中文就是显示?????,虽然在程序中运行无误.

  下面我就先说说我是怎么做的,将mysql设置成GBK的字符集，保证中文无乱码:
  (1)从/usr/share/mysql目录下copy 文件my-medium.cnf 到/etc下，并将改文件改名为my.cnf. 
  (2)在my.cnf（window下是my.ini文件）文件中找到　[mysqld]　在这里添加：default-character-set = GBK　，然后找到[mysql]　在这里也添加上default-character-set = GBK，保存后退出．（当然若要设置成UTF-8也一样，改成default-character-set = UTF-8即可）．
　然后重起mysql server,（去/etc/init.d/执行./mysql stop & ./mysql start）,再次去数据库执行mysql>SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'character_set_%';
