I all, I apparently am having a silimar issue in an attempt to install the db.

Problem below:
When I do a fresh install of the db through phpMyAdmin everything goes fine, no error messages or anything.

When I run install/index.php it deletes everything.

So, I restarted install/index.php then I get this message:

Error while executing: CREATE TABLE `AdminBanList` (
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax see more to use near '' at line 1

It continues loading all the errors, but all the errors point to line 1 in the
v61.sql file.

Now the only reference on line 1 is as follows:
line 1--
line 2-- Database: v 6.1
line 3--
line 4
line 5-- --------------------------------------------------------
line 6
line 7 SET NAMES 'utf8';

Using MySql 5.0
I ran into the same prolem multiple times using MySql 4.1

This just does not seem to work
Can any give any suggestions. I have also read through the Manual to some extent on MySql.com concerning that SET NAME statement and
I do not see it referenced the same way in th 5.0 Schema so I am
at loss.

Please reply quickly
Thanks Tim
