not able to run demodata.sql

During the initialization process the wizard told me it was unable to unpack the demo data so I tried to run the demodata.sql using PHPMyAdmin but with no success.

I read elsewhere in the forums that it could have been gremlins so I
zapped the file in BBEdit but still no luck

I was able to run the kernel_schema.sql just fine

any ideas why this won't run or how else I can get the demodata in place?

I work with a Mac and Fetch for FTP

Thanks!

I figured this out and though it may seem like a slilly mistake I'm posting it in case someone else runs into the same problem.

I couldn't run the kernel/sql/mysql/demodata.sql file becuse I had already run the kernel/sql/mysql/kernel_schema.sql file.
PHPMyAdmin was running into duplications in the database so the upload was failing.

FIX: I deleted all the tables --- (I suppose I could have run kernel/sql/mysql/cleandata.sql file) then re-ran the demodata.sql and successfully filled the database.

now the demo page is full of ezdebug errors but at least I got this far ;-)
