    hello, i don't know why i can't install awocoupon component on my website any more, i had it installed on my website last week and also i have it on local, but i did uninstall it from my website for some reasons, but after that i get an error every time i try to setup it again on my joomla, which says " Specified key was too long; max key length is 1000 bytes " 

    i just know that its a database related error, i have checked the database, installation process just create 5 awocoupon tables,

    k05r6_awocoupon

    k05r6_awocoupon_asset

    k05r6_awocoupon_config

    k05r6_awocoupon_license

    k05r6_awocoupon_tag

    i have tried deleting them and try again, with no luck, i have googled for the problem, some people says table engines should be innodb, so i changed those tables engines to innodb, but the installation process always give the same result.

     i can't even install the old version it, but my joomla db works fine, i don't have any issues with other components.i can install and unistall other component, but not awocoupon, does anyone have suggestion for me to solve this?

    Sound like the same issue from this forum topic:

    Are you familiar with phpmyadmin?  You could try to install the tables directly yourself before installing since the installation checks first to see if the table exists.

    You can find the mysql table code here:

    I am happy to help with the installation if needed, just send me a private message.
