database source errors

[lerxst2112]

I use a 5.0 version and have no trouble.

Try dumping the db via the console on your laptop, then source that db.

I tried all the suggestions, from using only the console, to dumping the laptop db and sourcing that source, to downgrading to 5.1.44, to downgrading to 5.0.92, but none worked.

What did work, however, was setting up xp-mode. I was able to install mysql onto it, then source the db onto this vm successfully. I've gotten the vm and the firewall to allow me to ping back and forth between the vm and the host, so it's only a matter of finishing the server setup and telling it where to look for the db.

Thanks for all the help and suggestions.
