 * Hi,
 * You first need to select a database and then run the query.
 * e.g Check this image
 * [IMAGE](http://mysqlbackuponline.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/phpmyadmin_url.jpg)
 * It has database listed on left hand side. You should have something listed over
   there. First select required database and then try running the query.
 * If still doesn’t work, Post a link to screenshot where you are getting this error.
