Hi Gleb, The problem was with the JDBC Connect string, earlier it was; jdbc:mysql://localhost:10000/db1?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=utf8
I changed that to: jdbc:mysql://localhost:10000/db1?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8 and it works now. thanks, Ramesh On Fri, 26 Nov 2004 13:53:43 +0200, Gleb Paharenko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello. > > What output produced > > show variables like '%char%'; > > show variables like '%colla%'; > > You should also set utf8 as server character set. > > See: > > http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Charset-defaults.html > > > > > Ramesh Vadlapatla <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > > > In my.cnf, I have: > > > [mysql] > > > default-character-set=utf8 > > > > > > When I connect via mysql client and try to run a query which has a > > > "CONCAT" string function, it works fine and I get the proper output. > > > Example: SELECT CONCAT ('a', ' - ', 'b') = a-b > > > > > > Now, I am trying to do make this work via Java and: > > > I use this JDBC Driver: mysql-connector-java-3.0.10-stable-bin.jar > > > Conn.
