Re: load data infile and character set
Are you sure your file is coded in utf8? Character set of your file must be same as charset of your database. Dusan Caleb Racey napsal(a): Does anyone know how to get the load data infile command to load utf8 data? I have setup a database as utf8 with a collation of utf8_general_ci, the mysqld server is started with --character-set-server=utf8. Server variables say character_set_database = utf8. I use the sql below LOAD DATA INFILE 'filename' REPLACE INTO TABLE db.table CHARACTER SET utf8 FIELDS TERMINATED BY '\t' LINES TERMINATED BY '\n' Yet when i try to load a file with an accented value in it e.g. "Agustín" the value gets truncated to "Agust" anyone got any solutions to this?

Try this: SET NAMES utf8; SET character_set_database=utf8; LOAD DATA INFILE... Baron Thanks for the suggestion I'm afraid i get the same behaviour when i try this approach accented values still truncate at the accent when i use load data infile. OK, the next suggestion is to use the 'binary' character set. By the way, I accidentally omitted quotes above; I should have typed SET character_set_database='utf8'; You should verify your connection's character sets with SHOW VARIABLES LIKE '%character%'; Try it with 'binary' and see if that works. Baron thanks again I'm afraid 'binary' achieved the same result as did using utf8 with quotes. I'm out of ideas, then. I wish I could help more.
