I have a problem with MySql.
I have PHP version 5.6, and the last version for phpmyadmin.
I tried using a lot of options but always is the same problem.
I got the error:
Cannot log in to the MySQL server
mysqli_real_connect(): Server sent charset (255) unknown to the client. Please, report to the developers
mysqli_real_connect(): (HY000/2054): Server sent charset unknown to the client. Please, report to the developers
Also If used $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword'] = true;
and username is root, without password is still the same problem.
