It's possibly due to your ssh connection but I couldn't answer you about this because I only use mysql with phpmyadmin.

As it turns out, I was trying show variables like --

And had a syntax mistake....

Does SHOW VARIABLES only show a certain number of
lines? When I ran this command, character_set was not
listed... the list seemed cut off just before it.

Unless it is an issue with SSH only showing x amount
of lines..

thanks,

You can see it by executing the "SHOW VARIABLES"
query on your server. You will find the used charset in the
'character_set' variable.


You can also use the query "SHOW VARIABLES LIKE
'character_set'" which will directly match what you want.

Hello,

How can I see what char set is being used as the
default char set on the server or database?

Also, is there a way to change the default

setting?

Thanks,

Yves
