Hi Gleb, mysql> SHOW VARIABLES LIKE '%char%'; +--------------------------+----------------------------+ | Variable_name | Value | +--------------------------+----------------------------+ | character_set_client | latin1 | | character_set_connection | latin1 | | character_set_database | latin1 | | character_set_results | latin1 | | character_set_server | latin1 | | character_set_system | utf8 | | character_sets_dir | /usr/share/mysql/charsets/ | +--------------------------+----------------------------+ 7 rows in set (0.08 sec) I assume the character_set_system being utf8 is the problem, but how do I change it? > You can use hexademical values for inserting the data.
