I have a MySql database on my server with a table named table_1. However I imported a csv file which occasionally included “café”. However the “é” was not inserted into the database table, so I have been left with the text “caf”. So what I would like to know is how can I replace the word “caf” in my database table with “cafe”?
Looks like an encoding issue to me – make sure you’re using UTF-8 throughout your DB, and reimport your CSV.
If you’ve used the LOAD DATA command in MySQL, you can pass it a CHARACTER SET, which, when set to ‘utf8’ should allow you to import that file correctly.
