Mainly for the benefit of others but see end of post for request.
Previously mysql was fine under FC14. Upgraded to FC15 64bit
System:
Intel® Pentium(R) Dual CPU T3400 @ 2.16GHz × 2
uname -r -v
2.6.38.8-35.fc15.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Jul 6 13:58:54 UTC 2011
Mysql would not start when I tried to use it. Failed with
Quote:
service mysqld start
Starting mysqld (via systemctl): Job failed. See system logs and 'systemctl status' for details.
|
Problem was these two lines in my /etc/my.cnf
Quote:
#default-character-set=utf8
#default-collation=utf8_general_ci
|
As you can see these are now commented out.
Result
Quote:
[root@centos etc]# service mysqld start
Starting mysqld (via systemctl): [ OK ]
|
Any advice about whether the default set and collation are now utf8 or how to relate that I want them to be utf8 in the conf file, gratefully received.
