Duplicator Succeeds with 41 errors – Tables don’t exist

So I created a package a little over a month ago. That package installs no problems with no errors. I created another package today because I need a latest copy. This one installs with 41 errors and upon inspection of the installer-log.txt file, there’s 41 errors stating database table or entry doesn’t exist and unknown collation utf8… I’ve tried writing over and erasing all data in the database I’m using, I’ve tried creating a new database. The old package works no problem but the one today gives the same results.

I thought the installation of the database that duplicator does should create these tables so why wouldn’t they exist? One of the tables is for forms so when I view the site anyways, there’s a lot of content missing.

Since we are warned not to post the installer-log.txt data I’ve just shown a snippet. It does this 41 times stating what you see below and then dumping data. Tries to lock tables but all that fails for unknown collation and table doesn’t exist.

**ERROR** database error write 'Unknown collation: 'utf8mb4_unicode_520_ci'' - [sql=CREATE TABLE  (
  <code>uuid</code> char(32) COLLATE utf8mb4_...]
**ERROR** database error write 'Table doesn't exist' - [sql=
