It's possible to shoehorn it in by editing the install/phoenix.sql file before doing the install. See viewtopic.php?p=3853#p3853

I think that Softaculous determines the list of software packages for Hostgator. We aren't in the list that you linked. Softaculous should be able to compare the MySQL requirements to what is available. I don't know if they are actively doing that at the moment. When I updated the requirements to include MySQL, I was also updating to add the required PHP settings. I was under the impression that Softaculous was checking those.

I would also note that MySQL 5.6 is past end-of-life and no longer gets security updates. MySQL 5.7 is seven years old and stable (in long term release). For that matter, 8.0 is four years old and stable (but actively developed). 5.6 is nine years old and hasn't had a release in a year (5.7 has had four releases in that time and 8.0 has had five).
Maybe 7 yrs old but that's what Godaddy, HostGator and likely many other mainstream hosting solutions are providing. Maybe I should look for a non-enterprises class linux distro/hosting provider that uses Ubuntu, Fedora or some other 'bleeding' edge disto so I can get hacked.

Personally, I've been running a RH/RHEL, since 2.0 back in the 90's on my home server. Also had a Silicone Graphics Indio running SATAN.

I left Godaddy since they switch ed using MS Exchange for email and charging for that. Not going to pay to get hacked!1

Another thing that they can do and A2 may already do is

Code: Select all

SET @@global.innodb_large_prefix = 1;
That setting will make (for these purposes) 5.6 work like 5.7.

I haven't heard any problems with A2 hosting, so they may do that by default (e.g. in my.cnf).

I still wouldn't recommend using 5.6 (even with InnoDB large prefixes on), as it no longer gets security updates and is now four updates behind 5.7 (which does get security updates). 5.7 is certainly not cutting edge by any means, as it's due to go end-of-life next year. But that's still another year of service than 5.6 (two counting last year).

And of course, there are more options with MariaDB, where we support 10.2.2 to 10.5 and they're now on 10.6 (which we probably support but untested) with 10.7 available for preview.

Mine's not either, but due to all the issues I've had, wasn't going to say anything as it could be on my end.

If so, they lost a customer. Godaddy had me for almost 20 years until they wanted me to pay for Microsoft 365 that I already pay for at home.
