    Description

      We should add a FAQ entry with common error messages and possible reasons.

      For example, creating a database with invalid characters can cause the MMS agent to give :

      UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode bytes in position 0-1: invalid continuation byte

      and the mongo shell to give :

      TypeError: malformed UTF-8 character sequence at offset 0
      error2:(shellhelp1) exec failed: TypeError: malformed UTF-8 character sequence at offset 0
