MySQL: SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier : <p>I just installed MySQL on my computer and when I try to create a database from the MySQL shell, I get this error:</p>

<pre><code>MySQL  JS &gt; CREATE DATABASE databasename;
SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier
</code></pre>

<p>Does anyone know why this is happening? Maybe there is a problem with the insallation of MySQL?</p>
