PrestaShop 1.7.0.2 with free hosting

[kamppa]

Please tell me which free hosting supports the latest PrestaShop.

 

I have tried two and I always fail to install it. I had no problems installing 1.6.1.10.

 

With byethost I get error:

MySQL Error No : 1071

MySQL Error : Specified key was too long; max key length is 1000 bytes

 

I tried changing MySQL password to max 8 characters but it did not help.

For Prestashop 1.7. you need a special host environment. Don't think that you will find one which is free. We all are struggling with the same problem and this as hosting specialist...

try remove all:

before:

CREATE TABLE (

.....bla_bla----bla...

) ENGINE=ENGINE_TYPE DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATION;

 

after:

CREATE TABLE (

.....bla_bla----bla...

) ;

Not a good idea to remove collation. You never will be able to move your database anymore to another host/provider. PS 1.7. is not really for to use in production at the moment. Is one of the buggiest versions that Prestashop released for to be in production since I'm using Prestashop in version 1.3. (so a long real long time...). Install 1.6. and use it, still there is no support available anymore (this means 4 or 5 years).
