[VuFind-Tech] Installation pear problem

[Throgmorton, N. L. <nlt...@cc...>]

Greetings,

I am trying to install vufind on a Windows 7 computer running xampp 1.8. As far as I can tell I have followed the instructions and the server and database are running. When I try to install vufind I get the errors below I have tried installing many times so the databases is already created. At the end it tells me that Vufind setup is complete. When I browse to vufind all I get is a directory listing. Could anyone please help? I have searched for a couple of days for an explanation but I have no idea what I need to do to get vufind installed and running.

Welcome to the VuFind Setup Script.
This will setup the MySQL Database as well as the necessary system libraries

The first step is to install the MySQL Database.

Could not find c:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server\bin\mysql.exe!

Enter the path to your MySQL installation (i.e. C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Ser
ver 5.0):c:\xampp\mysql
New Database Name [vufind]:vufind
New Database User [vufind]:vufind
New User Password:vufind

MySQL Host [localhost]:localhost
MySQL Root User [root]:root
MySQL Root Password:root

c:\xampp\mysql\bin\mysqladmin: CREATE DATABASE failed; error: 'Can't create data
base 'vufind'; database exists'
ERROR 1050 (42S01) at line 5: Table 'comments' already exists
The MySQL Database has now been created.

Don't forget to edit web/conf/config.ini to include the correct username and pas
sword!
