I'm trying to do a fresh install of Wordpress software on one of my domain names hosted in my VPS account. However, whenever I run the Wordpress install, everything goes fine but right after hitting he submit button, I get a very lengthy page with loads of database errors. I have deleted and re-created a new user, new database and everything while making sure there is no messup with the password. All information is correct and I'm adding correct username, database name and password in the wp-config.php file too but over and again, I end up getting same kind of errors. This has never happened in the past but happening after upgrading MySQL to the latest version. Please see the error below:

WordPress database error: [Got error -1 from storage engine]
INSERT INTO wp_options (option_name, option_value, autoload) VALUES ('siteurl', 'http://www.indianvapers.com', 'yes'), ('home', 'http://www.indianvapers.com', 'yes'), ('blogname', 'My Site', 'yes'), ('blogdes............

It's an extremely long page with the same sort of errors and by the end you see the famous message, "WordPress has been installed. Were you expecting more steps? Sorry to disappoint."

No idea what's going on. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!
