Magento 2.4.2 Installation with Sample Data errors

Question

I can't proceed the Magento 2.4.2 sample data installation.

It's Nginx 1.19, PHP-FPM 7.4, MariaDB 10.4, Elasticsearch 7.11 on Docker. Normal installation works without any problems.

The first time I run the installation it stops with the following error:

In Mysql.php line 110:

SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1025 Error on rename of './magedb/catalog_category_product_index_store1_outdated' to './magedb/catalog_category_product_index_store1_replica' (errno: 194 "Tablespace is missing for a table"),

query was:

RENAME TABLE catalog_category_product_index_store1 TO catalog_category_product_index_store1_outdated,catalog_category_product_index_store1_replica TO catalog_category_product_index_store1,catalog_category_product_index_store1_outdated TO catalog_category_product_index_store1_replica

When I then just run it again, it stops with:

SQLSTATE[42S02]: Base table or view not found: 1146 Table 'magedb.design_config_grid_flat' doesn't exist, query was: DELETE FROM design_config_grid_flat

Creating this table doesn't change anything... Does anyone have an idea to go through this?

If you are installing and using it locally then you can try creating a virtual host and installing your project in this new virtual. I followed these and it fixed the problem https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-apache-virtual-hosts-on-ubuntu-18-04-quickstart
