Installation Errors

  1. If you're getting error - 1071 Specified key was too long; while installation, it's due to older Mysql version. To resolve these, follow the below simple step and then try installing again.

  • Go to file config/database.php and change these values in mysql section

    'charset'   => 'utf8',
'collation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci',
'strict'    => false,
'engine'    => 'InnoDB ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC',

  1. If you're running MySql 5.7 or older, then disable strict mode inside mysql section in config/database.php

    'strict'    => false,

  2. You may get classiebit/eventmie-pro package not found error, this happens on a very few web-hostings where symlink feature is disabled by default. And to resolve the error-
