1.5.2: installation error: "Create default shop and languages"

[dEX2018]

When installing Prestashop, I receive the error message:

 

"An error occured during installation... Create default shop and languages"

 

Please see the attached printscreen: http://imageshack.us...prestashop.jpg/

 

I've done some searching. After receiving the error I have installed the latest revision from http://svn.prestasho...branches/1.5.x/ (as another user reported an issue and this might be the solution: http://forge.prestas...owse/PSCFV-3544) and uploaded all the files to my host. I first removed the original files of version 1.5.2. It then said that the install folder was not present. So I have also uploaded all the files from 1.5.2 version again (without overwriting existing files, to keep the revised version).

• I have also used another table prefix than the proposed one (ps_). I have used presta_ without success.
  
• I have always deleted all the existing tables before retrying.
  
• I'm installing it on Windows 8, in Internet Explorer. Will try Mozilla Firefox now ...
  

 

Is there a write issue on PHPMyAdmin?

 

Many thanks for your help.

I'm experiencing the same problem installing 1.5.3.1 on to a Microsoft IIS 7.5 server (whether using Firefox or IE). I get the following message:

 

Cannot copy flag language "C:\...\httpdocs\install/langs/en/flag.jpg => C:\I...httpdocs/img/l/1.jpg"

 

Is this info dEX2018's post the correct way to fix this?

 

Thanks

Scott
