MariaDB 10.3.29 Does Not Support My Website Files. How to use MySQL i n Plesk

Princedavids

New Pleskian
Please I am trying to migrate my wordpress website to a server (Plesk) the server is using the database engine (MariaDB 10.3.29) and my website is runing on database engine (MySQL 5.7.30). I am using a migration plugin called Duplicator pro. When I am trying to migrate, I receive an error notice ("The current database engine is [MariaDB 10.3.29] while the host database engine was [MySQL 5.7.30]") An after the migration the website loads till infinity.
What should I do in this case?

Yes, but it is not working. When I contacted my host where the old files are, they said it won't work because plesk does no have root access.
 
The Site Import extension should work regardless regardless whether or not you have root access. It's not required.
 
Can you still access your old host via FTP manually? e.g via an FTP client like FileZilla?
