#1273 – Unknown collation: ‘utf8mb4_unicode_520_ci’

I have a WordPress website on my local WAMP server. But when I upload its database to live server, I get error

#1273 – Unknown collation: ‘utf8mb4_unicode_520_ci’
Solution

  • You can solve this by finding

    ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4 COLLATE=utf8mb4_unicode_520_ci;

    in your .sql file, and swapping it with 

    ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_general_ci;
