Hi Steve,
I've installed a fresh Koha instance using the "oldstable" packages on Ubuntu 16.04 and MySQL.
Anyone know what might be causing this and how to recover/move on?
The real problem is your version of Mysql (5.7). Koha doesn't work with it. You can do this: 1)Drop the database created by install 2)Insert in your /etc/mysql/my.conf: [mysqld] sql_mode=IGNORE_SPACE,NO_ZERO_IN_DATE,NO_ZERO_DATE,ERROR_FOR_DIVISION_BY_ZERO,NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION Source: http://askubuntu.com/questions/811831/whats-the-correct-way-to-revert-mysql-... 3)Recreate the database (same user, same password, same database name) 4)Redo web install. I suggest you to do those operations with your IT support. But ATTENTION !! Be careful. I don't test those instructions. so I don't know if they could create problems instead of resolve them. An other user use them and he report an OK Test them before in spare server. Bye Zeno Tajoli
