Question
Any way to disable charset-handshake and change default server charset in Managed MySQL?
Too many old products can’t connect to new MySQL8.
All recommendations or rewrite old product, or change MySQL server settings like this:
[client]
default-character-set=utf8
[mysql]
default-character-set=utf8
[mysqld]
skip-character-set-client-handshake
character-set-client-handshake = 0
collation-server = utf8_unicode_ci
character-set-server = utf8
default_authentication_plugin = mysql_native_password
But how to do it in Managed MySQL?
Also “SET GLOBAL” way currently not available.
