Joomla 3.0 installation database creating issue

Question

I try to install Joomla 3 in my system. After download and extract files I put files in my localhost folder wamp/www/jesite/myfiles. After that I run the jesite folder and it displays index page then I give the corresponding details in configuration, database and overview section.

Then I pressed install button after it shows a window with four section

First it completed Backing up old databases and then it shows progress bar in creating database tables. But after that it shows the progress bar for a long time and when I checked in DB it creates 78 tables. But after it shows only the progress bar.

I dont know what I'm doing wrong. Anyone can help me to solve this problem.

Answer 1

I had the same problem. Go to \installation\sql\mysql\joomla.sql and change all ENGINE=InnoDB to ENGINE=MyIsam

Answer 2

Edit the SQL install file (Root/installation/SQL/mysql/joomla.sql). Open with notepad and replace all "ENGINE=InnoDB" with "ENGINE=MyIsam" the DB type then it will work succesfully.

Answer 3

I get this issue as well, to fix:

1. Open file installation/sql/mysql/joomla.sql
2. Replace ENGINE=InnoDb to ENGINE=MyIsam

And it works successfully.

Answer 4

Replacing "ENGINE=InnoDB" by "ENGINE=MyIsam" in the SQL script /installation/sql/mysql/joomla.sql also worked for me, as Giorgi BaneTishvili suggested in the previous answer.

I was installing Joomla 3.1.5 in a Strato shared hosting by uploading Joomla files, not using their auto-installing apps.

I tried adding a php.ini file with max_execution_time = 3000 and memory_limit = 256M, but it did not worked.

Answer 5

Just set (at php.ini)

max_execution_time = 120

works for me, on Xwampp v3.2.1

Answer 6

I change php.ini

from

max_execution_time = 30 

to

max_execution_time = 3000 

also bumped up

memory_limit = 256M
