Syntax error or access violation: 1115 Unknown character set: utf8mb4

I am migrating my classes but I am getting this error in laravel.

[PDOException]
 SQLSTATE[42000]: Syntax error or access violation: 1115 Unknown character set: 'utf8mb4'

[PDOException]
 SQLSTATE[42000]: Syntax error or access violation: 1115 Unknown character set: 'utf8mb4'

How do I resolve this error?

Solution

  • Go to config/database.php and replace these two lines with these

    'charset' => 'utf8', 'collation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci',
