Running on Ubuntu. Update from 7.4.3 to 8. mysql upgraded from 5.5 to 5.7 using 8.0 db connector. Upgraded ubuntu from 14.04 to 16.04.
Since the upgrade it took a ton of time to get things to work. Now they are very slow and sometimes unresponsive.
error stating that the collate is wrong and that utf8_bin is not supported. This is from the database:
@collation_database;
+--------------------------+----------------------+
@collation_database |
+--------------------------+----------------------+
| utf8mb4 | utf8mb4_bin |
+--------------------------+----------------------+
Looking for ideas to see what may be wrong
Thank you,
Eric
