in thread Encoding issue from DBI to string

Hey Karl, Upon looking in the my.cnf file, I had default-character-set = utf8 and collation-server = utf8_unicode_ci, however default-collation was not set. I made the necessary changes, but had to step into a meeting. I'll take a look at how things go in a bit.
