JInstaller: :Install: Error SQL DB function failed with error number 1273

Hello, I have just created my first component but I am having issues installing it I get the message:

JInstaller: :Install: Error SQL DB function failed with error number 1273
Unknown collation: 'utf8mb4_unicode_ci' SQL=CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `jos_rsscontact_` ( `id` int(11) UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, `ordering` INT(11) NOT NULL , `state` TINYINT(1) NOT NULL , `checked_out` INT(11) NOT NULL , `checked_out_time` DATETIME NOT NULL , `created_by` INT(11) NOT NULL , `modified_by` INT(11) NOT NULL , `firstname` VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL , `lastname` VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL , `companyname` VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL , `department` VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL , `email` VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL , `gdprconsent` VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL , PRIMARY KEY (`id`) ) DEFAULT COLLATE=utf8mb4_unicode_ci;

Could anyone tell me where I am going wrong?

Thanks

Hi Rachel,
