Help Database Installation Failing

[shorthands1]

Please excuse the extremely basic question, but I can't figure out where I went wrong here.

 

When I run database_installer.bat, it fails to create the backup and the database. I assumed at first it was because pointing to the wrong mysql executable, but I don't think that's it. The following is what I have tried so far.

 

Database_installer.bat: Troubleshooting Process

-C:\l2jserver\tools\xampp\mysql\bin [different mysql executables]
-C:\Program Files\MariaDB 10.5\bin\

-Change HeidiSQL's password

-Started over

-Admin rights with the bat file

-Executed within CMD

 

Notes:

-DB port: Using 3307. 3306 is being used by something else, but not another instance of xampp.

-My DB names within heidiSQL with utf8_general_ci, l2jls, l2jgs, & l2jcs

-Following canislupus's guide & Zealer's guide

-Currently using Repository bitbucket with Interlude at this moment

-Tried Sarimoko's repository as well

-vars.txt

-Windows 10 VM

-HeidiSQL_10.3_64_Portable, eclipse-jee-2019-12-R-win32-x86_64, 7-Zip 19.00, MariaDB 10.5, Java jdk1.8.0_231 64bit

 

Error Messages:

-Backup attempt failed! DB doesn't exist yet?

-There was some problem while executing: path to mysql.exe

 

Thanks!
