Problem
When executing the SQL query, I encountered the following error:
This typically happens when the MySQL server version is older and doesn't support the 'utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci' collation (which was introduced in MySQL 8.0).
Solution
To ensure broader compatibility, I updated the database configuration to explicitly use:
charset:utf8mb4collation:utf8mb4_general_ciThis collation is widely supported across MySQL versions and still provides good Unicode support.
Notes
Tested the connection and confirmed the error no longer occurs.
