Trying to install PrestaShop through CLI but getting error

An exception occured while establishing a connection to figure out your platform version. You can circumvent this by setting a 'server_version' configuration value

For further information have a look at: https://github.com/doctrine/DoctrineBundle/issues/673

Anyone has any idea where do I add the server_version config value?

You should set server_version to your database server version (that depends on your hosting provider).

In your PrestaShop/app/config/config.yml there should be a "doctrine" section.

Beware that config is in yaml format and is case-sensitive and whitespace-sensitive. You should use the exact same indentations.

doctrine:
    dbal:
        default_connection: xxx
        connections:
            xxx:
                server_version: 

If you don't know your database version, and using mysql, nowadays, "8.0" is a safe first guess.
