HI Andrew, Thanks for your reply. I tried it via Django's shell, one message which appears "Isbjørn" in the MySQL client is displayed as "Isbj\xc3\xb8rn" in the Django shell. Is this normal or there is already something wrong?
The way I configure MySQL is that I use some parameters when creating the database, like this create database db_name default character set utf8 collate utf8_general_ci; I haven't changed the my.cnf file, could you tell me which is the best way to configure the MySQL or Django? Thanks a lot! -Larry On Jul 17, 5:43 pm, Andrew Fong <fongand...@gmail.com> wrote: > Try fetching the data via Django's shell.
