Enabling MySQL 4-byte support problems

Starting point: established & upgraded Nextcloud 11.0.1 installation
Trying to: Enabling MySQL 4-byte support

Followed the Nextcloud documentation as per following URL:

And at this point it clicked to me what I did wrong…
I’ll try again…

OK…my mistake was here to do steps 1-3 and straight after that follow with step 4 & 5.

!!! SUCCESS !!!
