Try adding

[mysqld]
init-connect=SET NAMES binary

to my.cnf

Then restart mysql.

I have try with init-connect=SET NAMES utf8 but i still have the same error

[casey]

UTF-8 won't work, because those characters are ISO. Did you try "binary"?

which one my.cnf i have /etc/my.cnf and /user/local/cpanel/whostmgr

My joomla installation creates latin1_swedish_ci collation

latin1_swedish_ci collations are exactly why utf-8 won't work. Unless you want to convert your database to utf-8, which could be messy if there are special keys within the database.

how can convert it?
is this needed ?
init-connect=SET NAMES binary
