Asked by MassiveTealAngler
Your database access does not have the privileges to create tables in the “presta_shop” database. Check with your hosting provider: Storage engine MyISAM is disabled (Table creation is disallowed). You must have read permission on the “presta_shop” tables in the database. Ask your hosting provider to enable it. Unknown table ‘presta_shop.ps_test’
