mySQL database problem

[GingerNut]

I'm trying to set up a database for an auction site but keep getting the following error:

Error

SQL-query :

mysql < dbschema.sql
mysql < banner.sql
mysql < category.sql
mysql < parameters.sql

MySQL said:


You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'mysql < dbschema.sql
mysql < banner.sql
mysql < category.sql
mysql < paramete' at line 1


I've attached the files I'm trying to use, maybe someone could have a look and see what is wrong.

[phpman]

telling us the files names is not going to help. you need to load tham in and tell us what insert statement is erroring out. why are you doing it by command line? I mean phpmyadmin is much better.

I was following the instructions, but it doesn't matter now, I got it sorted.
