The solution of job failed to start when modifying MySQL character encoding

Found the following from the web: $sudo gedit /etc/mysql/my.cnf

Under [client] add.

default-character-set=utf8

Under [mysqld] add.

default-character-set=utf8

 Then save and exit

$ /etc/init.d/mysql restart

 The result appears:

Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an Upstart job, you may also use the stop(8) and then start(8) utilities, e.g. stop mysql ; start mysql. The restart(8) utility is also available. start: Job failed to start


It may be a version problem, check the method of modifying the character encoding method for versions after 5.5, and found that the method of modifying [mysqld] has changed to

[mysqld] added under should read.

character-set-server=utf8

collation-server=utf8_general_ci

save and quit

$ /etc/init.d/mysql restart

success

To access the MySQL console.

show variables like 'character%';
