[Mehul Bhatt]

Hello, i am newbie for PRESTA SHOP and when i try to install on my localhost (WAMP SERVER) i got error as below please give me some guideline to resolve this error

Error while inserting data in the database:
'SET NAMES \\\'utf8\\\''
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near \'\\\'utf8\\\'\' at line 1(Error: : 1064)

Your support & technical help will be appreciable

It seems your SQL query has been escaped for some reason. It should be the following:

SET NAMES 'utf8';

not:

SET NAMES \\\'utf8\\\';

I'm not sure what would cause this.

Check your files in server, check---> .../install/sql/..). if size is different... re-upload.
