I have successfully installed a drupal local testsite with Xampp and I am attempting to set up 4 sites to run on localhost
Following the instructions here http://drupal.org/node/32715 I have created 4 databases and attempted to execute this instruction:
"3. Next we need to add the necessary tables. Click the 'sql' tab, then use the browse option to navigate to the 'includes' folder of your Drupal installation, e.g. c:/www/drupal-4.6.3/includes. Select the file 'database.mysql.inc' then 'go'."
This generated the following error message:
"
Error
There seems to be an error in your SQL query. The MySQL server error output below, if there is any, may also help you in diagnosing the problem

"
I have scrutinised the code, but with my very limited knowlege of PHP & HTML I haven't been able to spot any discrepancy. There were no problems loading the 'drupal' database on the original install.
Could there be a compatibility problem with the mysql version (1.89), or the instructions (for drupal 4.57)?
As a newbie I do well with step by step instructions.
Any help much appreciated
Peter
