    Incorrect default charset for Zabbix database: "SQL_ASCII" instead "UTF8"

    Hi all,
    Just installed a fresh 7.2.2 on a debian 12 LXC in proxmox by following guide and I'm seeing this error message in the System information panel:
    "Incorrect default charset for Zabbix database: "SQL_ASCII" instead "UTF8""
    Everything seems to work,.. but this does not look right.
    How can I fix this please? Many thanks!

      Hi Cyber! Thank you !! That was it... new to zabbix but sorta up to speed nix wise. I was following a guide on initMax (good guide, except..) and they missed that detail out. Just learning at this point so I redid the LXC and used correct Unidode and all is well.
      I did have a battle getting the zabbix-agent2 running on the zabbix server... was not a conflicting port (10050) in this case.. The plugin conf calls killed it (as I did not yet build th ego files) so once I traced them down and disabled or fix the offenders all was good. Worth commenting the plugins off while getting started . In any event, thank you very much for the help!!
