Problem Description:
I get this all the way through Executing package #32... unsuccessful!

What did I do wrong?  

[deluxetommy]

I doble checked all of the chmods and reinstalled everything that needed to be installed in ASCII or Binary. I put in MySQL info hit 'Procede' and then I get this HUGE list of errors begining with

"Executing package #1... unsuccessful! Error: You have an error in your SQL syntax near '-_banned ( type tinytext NOT NULL, value tinytext NOT NULL) TYPE=MyISAM' at line 1
In CREATE TABLE autvonline_com_-_banned ( type tinytext NOT NULL, value tinytext NOT NULL) TYPE=MyISAM;"

And ending with

"Executing package #32... unsuccessful!
Error: You have an error in your SQL syntax near '-_topics VALUES (1, 1, -1, 1, 1, 1, -1, 0, 0, 0, NULL, 0)' at line 1
In INSERT INTO autvonline_com_-_topics VALUES (1, 1, -1, 1, 1, 1, -1, 0, 0, 0, NULL, 0);"

Please let me know what I did wrong or what I can do to fix it.
