Unknown database

Hello everyone!
I get an error at step 3 of the installation.

"Uncaught Exception mysqli_sql_exception: Unknown database 'glpi' in /var/www/glpi/install/install.php at line 319"

Config:
GLPI: 10.0.1
Apache/2.4.38 (Debian)
Database client version: libmysql - mysqlnd 8.1.6
PHP Version: 8.1.6
phpMyAdmin: 5.2.0
Server Version: 8.0.29 - MySQL Community Server - GPL

The documentation states

We recommend to use the newest supported PHP release for better performance.

Do you have any general recommendations which version of PHP and MySQL is best to use?

Re: Unknown database

I'm running PHP 7.4.3 with  mysql-server-8.0                      8.0.29-0ubuntu0.20.04.3

It seems that there something wrong in configuration...  Did u create the database ??

Re: Unknown database

I instructed GLPI to create a database on its own in the 2rd step of the installation.
The problem disappeared on PHP 8.0.19
Tell me what kind of encoding do you use?
