users.sql database table not importing

I'm having problems importing the users.sql database table using mysql query browser and PHPMYADMIN. I ran the sql script from terminal with the following results. This may not mean much but I'm looking for a way to troubleshoot the problem.


ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'databases' at line 3

Do not use the teerminal for importing the database, you should be using PHPMyAdmin for this.

see the "How to import a MySQL (.SQL) file to your database" tutorial on the learning resources page foir details:

did you select a database in the list of databases in PHPMyAdmin before going to the SQL tab and executing the SQL statement?

"did you select a database in the list of databases in PHPMyAdmin before going to the SQL tab and executing the SQL statement?"

No, I didn't. I selected test and the sql data is part of the test database. But I presume that isn't what is needed. I then went to MySQL localhost and created a new database called users. Next I selected the SQL tab and copied the users.sql table into the "Run SQL query/queries on server "localhost":" field and selected GO. users now shows up as a database. Is this the correct procedure?

Yes, that is the correct procedure, you need to select the database that the users table will be created in before running the script.
