help with mysql 3.23.53

I had the same problems when creating the database. Here's a quick HowTo for mysql.

Start with the README file steps.. when you get to the part about setting up the database, follow steps below:

Use Winmysyqladmin.exe to create the name/password, then minimize it.

Copy db.sql and dbupdate.sql to your c:\mysql\bin directory. (provided you installed mysql in the default location)

Run mysql.exe. Type:

create database eq; [Enter]
use eq; [Enter]
source db.sql; [Enter]
source dbupdate.sql; [Enter]

Here is a good place to install the 3.6 addon and the 3.9 update if you're going to as well while you're at it. When done, type:

exit [Enter]

Continue from here with the README steps.
