I was trying to connect phpmyadmin with drizzle. It says error in SQL Query : SET CHARACTER SET 'utf8'... I tried running it in drizzle and same error appears there. How can i disable the charsets/collations that we do on connect ?
And is there any specific reason for why drizzle does not support utf8 while mysql does ?

Use phpMyAdmin from master branch or newest 3.4 beta, it can connect to Drizzle though MySQL protocol.

Drizzle is made to be a simpler and more scalable DBMS than MySQL, and it supports only UTF-8 - all other character sets are gone, along with SQL queries that allow for their use. You may want to look into official docs [1] to look for differences. I already researched it a little as I want to implement full Drizzle support during this year's GSoC :)

The only phpMyAdmin version which can connect to Drizzle is 3.4. And by saying can connect I mean that's all what was tested and there are lot of other things which are broken. See my mail on this list from last October for more details: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.php.phpmyadmin.devel/7602

Drizzle does not support many of MySQL features. It was made to be much simpler.
