Please make sure that your host is using MySQL 5.6 or later. This is a minimum requirement of Joomla 4 itself, see https://downloads.joomla.org/technical-requirements Your MySQL server must have the utf8mb4 character set and its relevant collations (including utf8mb4_unicode_ci) enabled; this is also a requirement for Joomla but it's not explicitly written down anywhere, it was only mentioned on GitHub back in 2016 when the utf8mb4 support was added to Joomla.
