'server does not appear utf8 complaint' message,MariaDB Centos

[voytek]

just a comment, I have Cacti on Centos with MariaDB, during 1.21 upgrade (I might have seen this message in prior upgrades/install) I get a warning that I'm not UTF8, though, looking it /etc/my.cnf, it seems I am

# mysql --version

no real issue, just commenting

show result of these queries:
show variables like '%chara%';
show variables like '%coll%';

Maybe your mysql server is not using ini file you configured.
