We have seen in a previous post how to install Magento on your Windows computer , we will see now how to install the test database.
Why go to the page download the Magento site and click on the Download Sample Data.
Choose the zip format, if you use the software 7-zip (or another) that we presented in our previous videos.

You now need to import this file into your database.
The easiest way to install this and test database before installing Magento , why repeat the video above to install Magento locally on your computer and stop after creating your database.
Open your browser and run phpmyadmin (type into your browser: http://localhost/phpmyadmin )
Select your Magento database, you just have to click on the Import tab.
In the Location text file, select your file: magento_sample_data_forâ € | sql you previously unzipped and click on Run.

Hello, the sample data 1.2.0 can it be inappropriate to version 1.2.0.1 magento?
I tried to load magento 1.2.0 but apparently it refreshes the last out!
I uninstalled to reinstall the sample at the time of the creation of the database but it gives me error like this:
Error in file: "C: xampphtdocsmagentoappcodecoreMageCatalogsqlcatalog_setupmysql4-install-0.7.0.php" - SQLSTATE [23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1062 Duplicate entry '3-is_anchor 'for key 2

A little help would be needed Thanks!

Just a small clarification, check that you download the data samples for your version of Magento.
