You should check the error log about why the server didn't start. It should be called
yourhostname.err in your data directory. I think the problem is that you put spaces
around the second equal sign. The first equal sign "set-variable = ..." can be
surrounded by spaces but the second one "...
I asked about a week ago how to get mySQL to index correctly in Hebrew, and
the best answer that I received was to define a my.cnf file as follows
[mysqld]
set-variable = default-character-set = hebrew
I created the file /etc/my.cnf using the root account, stopped the mysql
daemon then restarted.
I don't think you can use alter table to change character sets in version 3.23.51.
You must do it at the server level. Try starting mysql with this command line option:
--default-character-set=hebrew
Hope this helps.
