after Mysql installation , I create a table and add some records like this
create table score (
student_id int,
subject varchar(10),
subject_score int
);
insert into score values (001,'数学',50),(002,'数学',60),(003,'数学',70);
and the result is
mysql> select * from score;
+------------+---------+---------------+
| student_id | subject | subject_score |
+------------+---------+---------------+
| 1 | ?? | 50 |
| 2 | ?? | 60 |
| 3 | ?? | 70 |
+------------+---------+---------------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
and then I changed "character set"
mysql> alter table score character set utf8;
mysql> alter table score modify subject varchar(10) character set utf8;
mysql> set character_set_server=utf8;
mysql> SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'character_set%';
+--------------------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
| 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-5.5.47-linux2.6-x86_64/share/charsets/ |
+--------------------------+---------------------------------------------------------+
8 rows in set (0.00 sec)
and my table struture is
mysql> show create table score\G;
*************************** 1. row ***************************
Table: score
Create Table: CREATE TABLE `score` (
`student_id` int(11) DEFAULT NULL,
`subject` varchar(10) DEFAULT NULL,
`subject_score` int(11) DEFAULT NULL
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
I think everything is fine but when I query my table, Chinese character still cannot display correctly
mysql> select * from score;
+------------+---------+---------------+
| student_id | subject | subject_score |
+------------+---------+---------------+
| 1 | ?? | 50 |
| 2 | ?? | 60 |
| 3 | ?? | 70 |
+------------+---------+---------------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
but when I insert the same records again , new record is fine!
mysql> insert into score values (001,'数学',50),(002,'数学',60),(003,'数学',70);
Query OK, 3 rows affected (0.00 sec)
Records: 3 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0
