By default MySQL uses latin1 (ISO-8859-1) character set.

MySQL doesn't support UTF-16LE.

If you want to set up connection character set you can:
- execute SET CHARACTER SET from the client
- run mysql client with --default-character-set option (or put this option to 
the my.cnf file)

Default UTF-8 Encoding

2004-02-13 Thread David Perron 

Hello-

Is there a way to change the default mysql encoding to be something else,
say UTF-16LE at the session level?

As always, thanks!
