I am trying to import a quiz from one class to another and this error comes up. I am fairly new to Moodle so I am not sure where to start looking.

What I do know. This error started occuring after I upgraded the server. I am currently running 3.9.2. I am not sure if it is realated the database or to the character set I am using. By default the server was set to utf8. 

When clickiing on the link "More information about this error" it tells me that there is no information about this error. I really could use some help about where to start looking. 
Thanks

Change Debugging to Developer level temporarily. That should give more information about what the problem is.

Do you think I am correct in assuming it is because I need to change my character set?

Thank you so much.

Well everything in the Moodle world should be UTF-8. You are probably right that the error suggests you have an invalid character somewhere, and if you can find and remove it, that would fix the restore.
