I am using MYSQL workbench as a database and PHP to connect to MYSQL workbench while connecting I am getting the following error.
Warning: mysqli::__construct(): Server sent charset (255) unknown to the client. Please, report to the developers in C:\Users\phpdesktop\phpdesktop-chrome-57.0-rc-php-7.1.3\www\index.php on line 3

Following is my code
<?php $conn = new mysqli('localhost' , 'root' , '' , 'database_name');
if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {
// insert username into the database table
$Username = $conn->real_escape_string(stripslashes(trim($_POST['Username'])));
$conn->query("INSERT INTO table_name (Username) VALUES ('$Username'");
}
?>
