Today I install MySQL on my Ubuntu 13.10, and it worked very well. But after I restart the computer, when I restart MySQL, it failed, and the log from /var/log/mysql is:

31216 22:40:25 mysqld_safe Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /var/lib/mysql

Could anyone help me to fix this issue, thanks!

  • Did you set this default-character-set in my.cnf?

Reset to default

It seems fairly obvious from the log output. [ERROR] /usr/sbin/mysqld: unknown variable 'default-character-set=utf8'

I think you're looking for character-set-server.
