I'm a new user trying to set up jDownloads for the first time. When selecting various control panel options, eg Downloads, I get the following error: 500 Illegal mix of collations (utf8mb4_general_ci,IMPLICIT) and (utf8mb4_unicode_ci,IMPLICIT) for operation '=' Illegal mix of collations (utf8mb4_general_ci,IMPLICIT) and (utf8mb4_unicode_ci,IMPLICIT) for operation '='

Following advice in previous posts I used phpMyAdmin and found and updated 5 tables using utf8_general_ci to the utfmb4_general_ci used by all other tables. The error remains.
QuoteAn error has occurred.

The result is the same with Use utf-8 on or off.
What else should be checked?
Hi.
Sorry but I have never see before an error like this with jdownloads.
Have you already tried to find a solution via Google?
