On restore of a backup file I'm getting this error.

I'm making a backup at one hosting and restoring it on another one.



Index column size too large. The maximum column size is 767 bytes.
SQL=CREATE TABLE `md7e9_akeeba_common` ( `key` varchar(192) COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci NOT NULL, `value` longtext COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`key`) ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4 COLLATE=utf8mb4_unicode_ci
Raw query text:

Hello,

during the restoration, please uncheck the option UTF8MB4 detection and check the Force UTF8 for tables.
That should fix your issue.
