Re: Illegal mix of collations (utf8_general_ci,IMPLICIT) and (latin1_swedish_ci,COERCIBLE) for operation '='

[Mark]

I didn't find any option for character-set-server so I add it under 
mysqld as you've stated. I also found default-character-set so I also 
set its value to utf8. It didn't work.

I tried adding a dash (utf-8) to it. It didn't work also.

Yes, I did restart MySQL after saving the configuration.

What does that error mean, by the way?
