在我的绝版Mac mini下安装了mysql 5.7版本，实例中，在通过load data 导入数据时发现表中的中文显示为  ？

通过百度，发现多个版本的解决方法，将其中一个成功解决的方法贴上来：

大多方法都是这样：需要到/usr/local/mysql/support-files目录下将Mac上的mysql配置文件模板my-default.cnf拷贝到/etc下并重命名为my.cnf

但是我的support-files目录下也不存在my.cnf文件，所以只能在终端重新创建了：

打开终端，输入：

cd /etc

sudo vim my.cnf

在vim模式下，复制粘贴以下代码：

# Example MySQL config file for small systems.

#

# This is for a system with little memory (<= 64M) where MySQL is only used

# from time to time and it's important that the mysqld daemon

# doesn't use much resources.

#

# MySQL programs look for option files in a set of

# locations which depend on the deployment platform.

# You can copy this option file to one of those

# locations. For information about these locations, see:

# http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/option-files.html

#

# In this file, you can use all long options that a program supports.

# If you want to know which options a program supports, run the program

# with the "--help" option.

# The following options will be passed to all MySQL clients

[client]

default-character-set=utf8

#password = your_password

port = 3306

socket = /tmp/mysql.sock

# Here follows entries for some specific programs

# The MySQL server

[mysqld]

read_rnd_buffer_size = 256K

net_buffer_length = 2K

thread_stack = 128K

# Don't listen on a TCP/IP port at all. This can be a security enhancement,

# if all processes that need to connect to mysqld run on the same host.

# All interaction with mysqld must be made via Unix sockets or named pipes.

# Note that using this option without enabling named pipes on Windows

# (using the "enable-named-pipe" option) will render mysqld useless!

#

#skip-networking

# Uncomment the following if you want to log updates

#log-bin=mysql-bin

# binary logging format - mixed recommended

#binlog_format=mixed

# Causes updates to non-transactional engines using statement format to be

# written directly to binary log. Before using this option make sure that

# there are no dependencies between transactional and non-transactional

# tables such as in the statement INSERT INTO t_myisam SELECT * FROM

# t_innodb; otherwise, slaves may diverge from the master.

#binlog_direct_non_transactional_updates=TRUE

# Uncomment the following if you are using InnoDB tables

#innodb_data_home_dir = /usr/local/mysql/data

#innodb_data_file_path = ibdata1:10M:autoextend

#innodb_log_group_home_dir = /usr/local/mysql/data

# You can set .._buffer_pool_size up to 50 - 80 %

# of RAM but beware of setting memory usage too high

#innodb_buffer_pool_size = 16M

#innodb_additional_mem_pool_size = 2M

# Set .._log_file_size to 25 % of buffer pool size

#innodb_log_file_size = 5M

#innodb_log_buffer_size = 8M

#innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit = 1

#safe-updates

[mysqlhotcopy]

关键是在[mysqld]下的这几句：

default-storage-engine=INNODB

character-set-server=utf8

collation-server=utf8_general_ci

粘贴完成，检查首行是否漏掉了 #

检查无误按 ESC退出编辑，输入 :wq! 回车退出vim模式

重启mysql即可
