Hi



When I view tables, I see 3 listed. When I say drop databases (the database
name), it says unknown table (the 3 tables). Even if I try drop the tables
themselves, it gives the same error.

Re: Unable to drop table

When you login to the mysql command line are you specifying the database
name that the tables you want to drop are in? If not then you need to
enter the command: drop table database_name.table_name

And when you were trying to use drop database, were you entering DROP
DATABASE or DROP DATABASES ... there is no S at the end of it.
