Error installing 1.0.8.1

[Nigel]

There seems to be some sort of error when installing the very latest github version.

The connection fields seem to be merging.

What version of MySQL is that? Note that 5.6 and older are past end-of-life.

Is there something different betweem 1.0.80 and 81 to fail on this ?
I've had no problems before, even with 1.0.8.
The server capabilities all show green thumbs up.

Trying to find the version number.

It's saying that it can't index one of the varchar(255) columns. In 1.0.8.1, those can be 1020 bytes (more than 767). If you just want to make it work, change all the 255s in the phoenix.sql file to 191.

I've installed it since I made that change, which suggests that it works in a newer MariaDB. It should not give that error in versions of MySQL 5.7 or newer.

I'm waiting for my hosts to come back to me with the version number.
I'm looking around but struggling to find the info.

Knowing them, it's probably well past its best !

Is it not shown on admin->Tools->Server Info

I'd have to load an older version to read it. I wiped it all.

I'll wait on the hosts first.

In phpMyAdmin, try

Code: Select all

select @@version as version;

or

Code: Select all

SHOW VARIABLES LIKE ‘%version%’;

It creates Action Recorder, Address book and Address Format tables then fails.

Sorry ecartz, where exactly am I entering that ?
