Django报错“_mysql_exceptions.Warning: Incorrect string value: ‘\xE6\xB5…’ for colu

原文地址：http://www.tuicool.com/articles/YvEZjyU


在使用Django连到我的VPS上的MySQL数据库，在插入数据时，报了这样一个错误：“_mysql_exceptions.Warning: Incorrect string value: ‘\xE6\xB5\x81\xE8\xA1\x8C…’ for column ‘name’ at row 1”。

我使用了中文的数据，看起来就是一个字符集不兼容的错误；Django默认使用UTF-8，而mysqld那边配置是默认使用了latin1 – default collation 。

解决办法如下：

1. 修改 /etc/my.cnf 配置文件，然后重启mysqld。

在[client]下配置：default-character-set=utf8

在[mysqld]下配置：

default-character-set=utf8

init_connect=’SET NAMES utf8′

2.如果还没有解决，那么就得删掉原来建的DB，重新建并制定字符集为utf8，如：CREATE DATABASE `jay_db` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci;

附我遇到的报这个错的堆栈信息：
