MySql-Client error: 2019 (cr_cant_read_charset), lrm-00118: syntax error at '=' at the end of input
This error occurs due to one of the below cases:
a. There is no support for the character set in the client and the character set is a multi-byte character set. To fix, run “configure” with –with-charset=charset_name or –with-extra-charsets=charset_name option to recompile the client.
b. The character set is not compiled into mysqld and the definition files are not located in correct place. To fix, follow the below methods:
b.1. Recompile the client with support for the character set.
b.2. Specify the character set definition files using the –character-sets-dir option.
b.3. Copy the character set definition files to the correct directory.
