Expected behavior

Migration should be applied

Minimal reproduction of the problem with instructions

when I run db-migrate up -v --env=prod

Environment

db-migrate 0.11.11
db-migrate-mysql: ^2.1.1
mysql version 8.0.23

[AntonFartovii]

did you resolve this issue?

[DVLP]

Same error but in a different situation so the problem could be related.
When using mysql-import I was getting this error. In the imported SQL file I removed /*!40101 SET NAMES utf8 /; and it worked.
I kept /!40101 SET NAMES utf8mb4 */;
It's as if utf8 doesn't resolve anymore. I think the default for utf8 was utf8mb3

Edit: There it is https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/charset-unicode-utf8.html

[nabeel-anwar]

convert your table into utf8mb4
"ALTER TABLE table_name CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci"

Add this raw after running migrations
