validation.max.string & 500 error on install

UaMV

I am attempting to install my first forum on shared hosting with SiteGround. They have setup Composer for me and I have followed the instructions outlined here and here to assist in getting me most of the way to a live site. However, now as I am entering the details at the URL of my forum for installation, I am receiving the following error displayed on the page:

Something went wrong: validation.max.string

and in my console, I am receiving this:

:x: Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 () - https://**.****.xyz

I've checked error logs in cPanel, but don't see anything listed. I suppose it could be that things are not being logged properly. My first guess is that the server may not be allowing POST requests or are limiting them to a certain size. I've Googled solutions for that, but haven't been able to find anything useful yet. Anyone able to offer some direction? Thanks!

Validation max string means you're going over a defined limit with one of your fields input on the web-install form. Is your URL ridiculously long by chance?

webeindustry Not ridiculously.

https://talk.typewheel.xyz/

I'll have to dig into the PHP info. That'd be first place to look, I suppose for a limit?

The issue was that I was trying to a DB prefix with too many characters. I received the error when attempting to use twxyz_talk_. Once I changed the prefix to talk_, it installed properly. This thread can be marked Solved.

This issue has to be reported on Github and can only be marked as solved when it's fixed. Otherwise we keep support questions pop up that relate to this without any focussed way of tracking progress on it.
