CiviCRM - Installing on Wordpress Hosted in AWS DB Error

Question

I was testing out CiviCRM as part of a project I am working on and decided to host it in AWS on a WordPress site. After downloading the newest version (5.10.4), I then uploaded the Zip file to my site. I activated the plugin and proceeded to install CiviCRM accordingly.

To make my life easier, I created a new user with admin permissions and created a separate database for CiviCRM. So far, so good. I kick off the installation and everything shows up as good and the message you get post install pops up letting you know about settings, etc. Shortly after this message appears, I get the dreaded db error message due to a syntax issue.

I looked at the logs and noticed that there is a fatal error that is one part syntax and another part where the actual tables don't seem to be within the database that CiviCRM created during installation. I have tried a few different variants, such as older versions of CiviCRM, some cases where I did not create the separate database and user which spun off different errors, but there seems to be a theme of some type of syntax error (Mind you, I am not writing this SQL, the application is generating it). Also, the tables this is referencing, don't seem to be anywhere in the MySQL database, which is confusing to me. See below for a snip of the log file with what I am receiving. Any assistance or advice you all can give as to why this is occurring and how I can possibly remedy it?

Thank you in advance!

Answer 1

Is it mysql 8? Grouping is a reserved word in mysql 8 and civicrm doesn't officially support it yet.
