 +== Finish set configfile ==
 +  * Go to ''/etc/mysql'' folder, and choose config, who you prefer ( for simple variants without heavy mysql load,if you have 2+ Gb RAM, i recommend my-large.cnf) and copy it to \ as ''/etc/my.cnf''.
 +  * Edit ''/etc/my.cnf'' adding these lines after [mysqld]:
 +<code>
 +[mysqld]
 +collation-server = utf8_unicode_ci
 +init-connect='SET NAMES utf8'
 +character-set-server = utf8
 +</code>
 +This gives you full utf8 on your mysql server, after restart it.
