Answer 2

This happens to me when I tried to install voyager. After few digging I found these two answers which working.

Solution 01

* /config/database.php *

'mysql' => [
    ...,
    ...,
    'engine' => 'InnoDB',
 ] 

Solution 02
editing the database.php file in config folder.(Same file in above answer) Just edit,

'charset' => 'utf8mb4',
'collation' => 'utf8mb4_unicode_ci', 

to

'charset' => 'utf8',
'collation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci',

I found these from Laravel Migration Error: Syntax error or access violation: 1071 Specified key was too long; max key length is 767 bytes issue answers. So all credit should go to @dexterb and @Koushik Das
