We're sorry, but the bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking help on using MySQL products. Your problem is not the result of a bug. Support on using our products is available both free in our forums at http://forums.mysql.com and for a reasonable fee direct from our skilled support engineers at http://www.mysql.com/support/ Thank you for your interest in MySQL. Additional info: "shell>" in the text means cmd.exe command line window on Windows. To enter mysql and other command you need to use command line window, with command interpreter, that is, "shell". I see nothing difficult in the actions described.

This is not a request for support. Where is the appropriate place to report the problem? If MySQL is interested in improving the service it offers there should be an avenue. (The problem did include an actual bug since one of the commands did not work.)

OK. So, README.txt should be made more clear, and either load_pet_tbl.sql should include a full pathname, or, better, README.txt should contain explanation about the need to cd to the appropriate directory. I'll mark this report as a verified documentation request.

Thank you for your bug report. This issue has been addressed in the documentation. The updated documentation will appear on our website shortly, and will be included in the next release of the relevant product(s). Additional info: Note: Regarding one of the commands not working: It's assumed that you execute the commands in the directory where the menagerie files are located. I'll make this assumption explicit in the README.txt file.
