Right now plugin has a compatibility issue with older versions of MySQL and MariaDB. The fix for it is developed and dev team now tests it. It will be released at the beginning of the next week. As a temporary workaround you may upgrade your MySQL to version 5.7.8 or higher or MariaDB 10.2.7 or higher. * If you have any more questions or issues, feel free to share them. - This reply was modified 7 years, 2 months ago by [kaneua](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kaneua/). * Thread Starter [rosboc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rosboc/) * (@rosboc) * [7 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-activating-watson-conversation-plugin/#post-11352088) * Hi, thanks for the update.
