Error installing Magento

Question

I downloaded the Magento community version and sample data. I am using XAMPP, and while I am trying to install Magento, all five steps are fine, as you can see below

When I click the install button, the installation process stops with the following error message

Module 'Magento_Widget': Installing schema.. [ERROR] exception 'Zend_Db_Exception' with message 'Column "code" does not exist in table "widget".' in C:\xampp\htdocs\Magento\vendor\magento\framework\DB\Adapter\Pdo\Mysql.php:967 Stack trace: #0 C:\xampp\htdocs\Magento\vendor\magento\module-widget\Setup\InstallSchema.php(102): Magento\Framework\DB\Adapter\Pdo\Mysql->changeColumn('widget', 'code', 'widget_code', Array) #1 C:\xampp\htdocs\Magento\setup\src\Magento\Setup\Model\Installer.php(798): Magento\Widget\Setup\InstallSchema->install(Object(Magento\Setup\Module\Setup), Object(Magento\Setup\Model\ModuleContext)) #2 C:\xampp\htdocs\Magento\setup\src\Magento\Setup\Model\Installer.php(732): Magento\Setup\Model\Installer->handleDBSchemaData(Object(Magento\Setup\Module\Setup), 'schema') #3 [internal function]: Magento\Setup\Model\Installer->installSchema() #4 C:\xampp\htdocs\Magento\setup\src\Magento\Setup\Model\Installer.php(331): call_user_func_array(Array, Array) #5 C:\xampp\htdocs\Magento\setup\src\Magento\Setup\Controller\Install.php(97): Magento\Setup\Model\Installer->install(Array) #6 C:\xampp\htdocs\Magento\vendor\zendframework\zend-mvc\src\Controller\AbstractActionController.php(82): Magento\Setup\Controller\Install->startAction() #7 [internal function]: Zend\Mvc\Controller\AbstractActionController->onDispatch(Object(Zend\Mvc\MvcEvent)) #8 C:\xampp\htdocs\Magento\vendor\zendframework\zend-eventmanager\src\EventManager.php(444): call_user_func(Array, Object(Zend\Mvc\MvcEvent)) #9 C:\xampp\htdocs\Magento\vendor\zendframework\zend-eventmanager\src\EventManager.php(205): Zend\EventManager\EventManager->triggerListeners('dispatch', Object(Zend\Mvc\MvcEvent), Object(Closure)) #10 C:\xampp\htdocs\Magento\vendor\zendframework\zend-mvc\src\Controller\AbstractController.php(118): Zend\EventManager\EventManager->trigger('dispatch', Object(Zend\Mvc\MvcEvent), Object(Closure)) #11 C:\xampp\htdocs\Magento\vendor\zendframework\zend-mvc\src\DispatchListener.php(93): Zend\Mvc\Controller\AbstractController->dispatch(Object(Zend\Http\PhpEnvironment\Request), Object(Zend\Http\PhpEnvironment\Response)) #12 [internal function]: Zend\Mvc\DispatchListener->onDispatch(Object(Zend\Mvc\MvcEvent)) #13 C:\xampp\htdocs\Magento\vendor\zendframework\zend-eventmanager\src\EventManager.php(444): call_user_func(Array, Object(Zend\Mvc\MvcEvent)) #14 C:\xampp\htdocs\Magento\vendor\zendframework\zend-eventmanager\src\EventManager.php(205): Zend\EventManager\EventManager->triggerListeners('dispatch', Object(Zend\Mvc\MvcEvent), Object(Closure)) #15 C:\xampp\htdocs\Magento\vendor\zendframework\zend-mvc\src\Application.php(314): Zend\EventManager\EventManager->trigger('dispatch', Object(Zend\Mvc\MvcEvent), Object(Closure)) #16 C:\xampp\htdocs\Magento\setup\index.php(31): Zend\Mvc\Application->run() #17 {main} 

Please help me solve this problem.

Answer 1

The problem is that the database was not clean. When installing, make sure that the database is empty, and now the installation will be successful.
