TFS 1.X+ Setting up TFS 1.6

[danberry]

So I downloaded official TFS1.6[compiled] >
Started Xampp MySQL and Apache >
Created a database named forgottenserver >
Successfully imported Schema.sql >
Ran [as admin] forgottenserver-x64.exe (unsuccessfully, crash on startup which I assume is database connection error)
So I've added to the servers config.lua

-- MySQL
mysqlHost = "127.0.0.1"
mysqlUser = "root"
mysqlPass = ""
mysqlDatabase = "forgottenserver"
mysqlPort = 3306
mysqlSock = ""

Also tried with a forgottenserver username (after creating one without a password in the database)
Still not working, can someone dummyproof this for me please?

Thanks in advance

install mariaDB is better, xampp is old for tfs1,6v
