Installation stops at 23% Error - Create default shop and languages

[apatan]

I have been facing a terrible time since morning. I have tried installing 2 versions of Prestashop- Ver1.5.4.1 and Ver 1.5.6.0

 

In both the installations, the installation stops at 23% and I get the following error. 

 

1.       Create settings.inc file
2. Create database tables
3. Create default shop and languages
   1. Cannot create group shop / Got error -1 from storage engine

An error occured during installation...

You can use the links on the left column to go back to the previous steps, or restart the installation process by clicking here.

 

Can you please please help me resolving this. Pretty new to prestashop community.

 

Thanks so much

I am also facing error at 23%, but fortunately get resolved.....

might be this can help you...

1)i have unzipped the folder using terminal....

2)the unzipped folder destination (where i extracted it) is different from folder where zip file is kept.

3)changed  permissions of folder access to Create and delete File. and file access to read and write of zipped folder.

4) and name of database i used any thing dissimilar to "prestashop" like "test".

Thanks man, it helped me. by the way, just to change databse name from "Prestashop" to "anything" will work.
