How to Display Full Query Results in phpMyAdmin

In phpMyAdmin, the results of some queries can be truncated, as shown below:

phpMyAdmin: truncated text

This isn’t due to the size of the browser window or any error on your part; phpMyAdmin simply truncates the text.

The solutions is very simple:

  1. Click on the + Options link above the results.
  2. In the options menu, select Full texts.
  3. Click on Go to re-execute your query.
phpMyAdmin: Full texts option

Once you’ve done this, phpMyAdmin will display the complete results of your query:

phpMyAdmin: Full text displayed

MySQL Workbench: This file type is not supported, valid options are CSV, JSON

The problem: You’re trying to use the Table Data Import Wizard in MySQL Workbench to import a CSV file into a database and it’s giving you the following error:

This file type is not supported, valid options are CSV, JSON

This file type is not supported, valid options are CSV, JSON

However, you are sure that the file is a CSV file.

The solution that worked for me (with MySQL Workbench 8.0): Renaming the CSV file from DATA.CSV to DATA.csv. Yes, MySQL Worbench did not like the capitalization of the file extension.
