Alright, this is actually my second attempt today to set up this server, first one i got halfway through(5.2) and then i downloaded 5.3 DR2.

Whenever i try to source a sql file now, it says Failed to open file 'db.sql', error: 2

I didn't have this problem the first time. I've tried other sql files, and have even uninstalled/reinstalled mysql, but still the same error.

I downloaded mw_052_053_alpha2.sql and the upgrade, but the problem is that Mysql isn't even opening the file.

Hmm did you make sure that you are running mysql from the directory that you unziped the files to?

For example

Unzip to

c:\mwndb

open command prompt

c:\

cd\mwndb

mysql -u root mysql

use databasename;

source sqlfile.sql;

If that doesnt work than I am not sure what else to try.
