I'm afraid I have to agree with the last anonymous post to Spacemonkeys' topic - WordPress simply doesn't work with Win/Apache/Mysql. I get exactly the same error and I seem to have exactly the same setup as the person who posted the reply. Any chance of a fix from someone somewhere? I really would like to try out WP!

Here is what I have:
Webserver with
mySQL with phpmyadmin access,
and
SERVER_SOFTWARE Apache/1.3.28 (Unix)
I got errors on install, but wordpress up and running great. I like it, and have tried about 4 or 5 others.
Thanks for your reply, here is the post I made earlier - can you help?
I have manually created config.php and all the entries are correct but I get this error message
[Table 'wordpress.wp_options' doesn't exist] when I run install.php in the browser.
I'm trying to set it up on my machine at home - I'm running Apache with phpmyadmin installed and editing on Dreamweaver.
I've just found Laughing Lizard's sql dump file - absolutely essential! Thanks guys, I'm up and running and it only took 2 days. Seriously 'though, I'm really looking forward to trying this out. Thanks again.
I also got the problem of SQl but script is running fine Which is the stable version as in worldpress.org/latest there are daily new update so which is the stable version

I would not want any one to be put off setting up WP locally before going live. I use Easyphp
which has apache/mysql/phpadmin/php all in one bundle. The guys are French but they provide docs in a multitude of tongues. Installed like a dream. WP went in with no problems.

no problems running Win Xp and xampp. It's great to be able to learn, experiment and test on your own machine.
