I was just going threw the Tutorial to setup a server, on step 12, Create EQ Database, when you type "mysql -u root mysql" it gave me this

'mysql' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

I have double, triple and quadruple check my %path% mysql bindings.

Any ideas?

Thanks

this is simple a path issue.

even tho you've double/triple checked it.. it's still wrong or else it'd work.

Otherwise, change to the folder mysql.exe is in and run these commands, but be sure to place any .sql files you want to source into that folder.

1) make sure your at a dos prompt.

2) can check path at dos promt. C:\>path

Try rebooting your pc for pathing to take effect...
