将scandic字母插入数据库时​​出错

Question

I'm trying to insert web addresses to my database that contain scandic letters, for example:

ÄÖäöÅå

I'm using:

• Opensuse 13.2 64bit Linux and MariaDB.
• MySQL Server version: 5.5.44-MariaDB openSUSE package
• PHP Version is 5.4.20

When I try to insert, I get this error message:

Incorrect string value: '\xC4HK\xD6.

This query confirms that the character set and collation is set correctly:

if (mysql_query("SET NAMES utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci")) {
    echo "Character set OK !";
}

My MySQL query works for everything except URLs that contain scandic letters:

if (mysql_query("INSERT INTO `table` (`address`) VALUES ('$URL')")){
    $insertCount++;
    echo "<br> insertcount = ".$insertCount."<br>";
} else {
    echo "MySQLerror = ".mysql_error()."<br>"; // Show MySQLerror

This is MySQL info from MariaDB, showing that everything is set to utf8mb4:

MariaDB [(none)]> SHOW VARIABLES WHERE Variable_name LIKE 'character\_set\_%' OR Variable_name LIKE 'collation%';

| collation_server         | utf8mb4_unicode_ci |

10 rows in set (0,00 sec)

How can I correctly insert scandic letters?

@Monty: These are my database settings:

@Rick James: This what I got back :

Answer 1

Try this

Verify that the tables where the data is stored have the utf8 character set:

SELECT
  `tables`.`TABLE_NAME`,
  `collations`.`character_set_name`
FROM
  `information_schema`.`TABLES` AS `tables`,
  `information_schema`.`COLLATION_CHARACTER_SET_APPLICABILITY` AS `collations`
WHERE
  `tables`.`table_schema` = DATABASE()
  AND `collations`.`collation_name` = `tables`.`table_collation`
;

check your database settings:

show variables like '%colla%';
show variables like '%charac%';

Change utf-8 to utf8_general_ci

ALTER TABLE tablename CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci;
