<p class=MsoNormal>Hey Michael,<br>
<br>
It just means to run some commands within the mysql
shell. There are several different ways to do this. Perhaps the
easiest is to get to the command line - just open a terminal window (in Linux)
or a DOS command window (in Windows) and type:<br>
<br>
mysql -u username -p<br>
<br>
and it should ask you for the mysql password associated with the
username. Enter that, and it will say <br>
<br>
mysql><br>
<br>
just enter that line<br>
<br>
show variables where variable_name LIKE "character_set%" OR
variable_name LIKE "collation%";<br>
<br>
and you'll get the list.<br>

MySQL – Server Configuration – I’ve added the four lines listed to the my.cnf
file. It now says to “connect to mysql ad the (non-root) user and type:”
I have no idea how to do this.<br>
