I have MySQL InnoDB table utf-8 encoded. This table has only id and name

  • 0

I have MySQL InnoDB table utf-8 encoded. This table has only id and name field. Names are in russian language and 1 name in English for testing purpose. English name selects ok but when trying to select with russian name it returns empty list. I tried to build queries both with Criterion and HQL.

getHibernateTemplate().find("from FirstName where name='free' ");
getHibernateTemplate().find("from FirstName where name='ИННА' ");

Here is connection string –
?zeroDateTimeBehavior=convertToNull&useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=utf8

i’m using hibernate 3.2.7.ga and spring 2.5.6.SEC03

Here is hibernate log:

Hibernate: /* from FirstName where name='ИННА'  */ select firstname0_.`id` as id1_24_, firstname0_.`name` as name2_24_ from `first_name` firstname0_ where firstname0_.`name`='ИННА' limit ?

    Thanks to all, i have found an answer.

    The problem was in connection string.
    I did refactor and moved connection string to the properties file instead of xml with spring-bean. But i did not changed “&” entity to the “&”.
    Successfull connection string is in properties file

    jdbc:mysql://${host}:${port}/${database}?zeroDateTimeBehavior=convertToNull&useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8&characterSetResults=UTF-8

    XML file changes & entities to the correct, but properties format don’t do this.
