This sometimes happens if you're trying to install Mahara into a database from a previous installation failure.
I'd recommend dropping and recreating your database and trying again. If you get a different error, let us know.

Hi Zit campus,
Please, you found some solution to the problem? I have the same error, but for me just reloading the browser show the message. In this wiki (http://recursostic.educacion.es/observatorio/web/es/software/software-educativo/971-instalacion-de-mahara-en-local?start=6) talk about the error, but it is not important.
Please help me, thanks!!!

Re : Could not execute command CREATE TABLE config
During the installation http://localhost/mahara/htdocs/admin/upgrade.php
for the core
I had the error message stating : « Could not execute command » CREATE TABLE , with table « config ».
First, I followed the advice here, as given by Jonathan :
https://mahara.org/interaction/forum/topic.php?id=131
increasing the resource limits in the php.ini
max_execution_time = 120 ; Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds
and
memory_limit = 256M
Then, I created a new database, as Richard has adviced :

Successfully installed Mahara!
Thanks.
