 * [@tanmaymeh](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tanmaymeh/) does the database
   user have enough permissions? From the error message above, it seems to me that
   Duplicator isn’t able to create a table, which is required for it to function
   normally.

 * Yes, I can install and activate other plugins easily. But only duplicator cannot
   be activated.

 * [@tanmaymeh](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tanmaymeh/) if the other plugins
   are working well, you need to find out why Duplicator isn’t able to create the
   mentioned table on your system. I tested the installation of the plugin and didn’t
   get any errors, so this is something specific to your system.
 * One thing you could try is to create the table wordpressone.wp_duplicator_packages
   manually and activate Duplicator.
