character set in MySQL 4.1

2005-07-11 Thread Chenzhou Cui

Dear all,

I am a Chinese and using Chinese in my MySQL databases.

On my old server, the version of MySQL is 3.23.58. And my new MySQL is
4.1.7.

On my old server, the MySQL works well with my Chinese contents.
However, after I transfer tables to the new server using:
mysqldump --opt database | mysql -h 'newserver' database

The new server can't display Chinese contents correctly. What need I do?

What's more, I can't find gbk.xml and gb2312.xml at
/usr/share/mysql/charsets, need I download them from somewhere?

Thanks a lot,
CB

Hello.



First read:

  http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/charset.html



mysqldump could put SET NAMES 'utf8' at the beginning of the dump

file, check it and remove or perform a dump using --set-names=gbk.

Use --defaults-character-set=gbk for mysql client (or put correct

values for character_set_xxx variables in configuration file). 



Use

  show variables like '%char%';

to debug this issue.



 What's more, I can't find gbk.xml and gb2312.xml at

 /usr/share/mysql/charsets, need I download them from somewhere?



Probably it is a compiled in character set. See README file in charsets 

directory.
