I am trying to do a quick install and am getting an error after I enter the database information from the installation. I can do a regular Joomla install just fine. It’s when I use the quickstart package that I get the error. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Here is the error:

“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 ‘TYPE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=9’ at line 29 SQL=CREATE TABLE `jos_banner` ( `bid` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, `cid` int(11) NOT NULL DEFAULT ‘0’, `type` varchar(30) NOT NULL DEFAULT ‘banner’, `name` varchar(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT ”, `alias` varchar(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT ”, `imptotal` int(11) NOT NULL DEFAULT ‘0’, `impmade` int(11) NOT NULL DEFAULT ‘0’, `clicks` int(11) NOT NULL DEFAULT ‘0’, `imageurl` varchar(100) NOT NULL DEFAULT ”, `clickurl` varchar(200) NOT NULL DEFAULT ”, `date` datetime DEFAULT NULL, `showBanner` tinyint(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT ‘0’, `checked_out` tinyint(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT ‘0’, `checked_out_time` datetime NOT NULL DEFAULT ‘0000-00-00 00:00:00’, `editor` varchar(50) DEFAULT NULL, `custombannercode` text, `catid` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT ‘0’, `description` text NOT NULL, `sticky` tinyint(1) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT ‘0’, `ordering` int(11) NOT NULL DEFAULT ‘0’, `publish_up` datetime NOT NULL DEFAULT ‘0000-00-00 00:00:00’, `publish_down` datetime NOT NULL DEFAULT ‘0000-00-00 00:00:00’, `tags` text NOT NULL, `params` text NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`bid`), KEY `viewbanner` (`showBanner`), KEY `idx_banner_catid` (`catid`) ) TYPE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=9″

Found the solution!

“I just noticed there ‘ENGINE=MyISAM’ but when I opened the Joomla’s installation sql file (Joomlafolder/installation/sql/mysql/joomla.sql) and noticed that there was TYPE=MyISAM. So I just find and replaced all the occurrences of ‘TYPE=MyISAM’ to ‘ENGINE=MyISAM’ and tried to install Joomla then it worked like a charm.”
