My DB server now shows:
Code:
"character_set_client= "utf8"
"character_set_connection "utf8"
"character_set_database= "utf8"
"character_set_filesystem= "binary"
"character_set_results= "utf8"
"character_set_server= "utf8"
"character_set_system= "utf8"
"character_sets_dir= "/usr/share/mysql/charsets/"
But Im still getting all the SET NAMES and Collation statements? I have also restarted the mysql server. As far as I can tell everything about my server is UTF8 but CI still wants the set the parameters. Any suggestions?
