CREATE TABLE `lgsl` ( \
  `id`         INT     (11)  NOT NULL auto_increment,\
  `type`       VARCHAR (50)  NOT NULL DEFAULT '',\
  `ip`         VARCHAR (255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',\
  `c_port`     VARCHAR (5)   NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',\
  `q_port`     VARCHAR (5)   NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',\
  `s_port`     VARCHAR (5)   NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',\
  `zone`       VARCHAR (255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',\
  `disabled`   TINYINT (1)   NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',\
  `comment`    VARCHAR (255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',\
  `status`     TINYINT (1)   NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',\
  `cache`      MEDIUMTEXT    NOT NULL,\
  `cache_time` TEXT          NOT NULL,\
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`)\

Troubleshooting

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function mysqli_connect() in ***\html\lgsl\lgsl_files\lgsl_class.php:109

To solve that problem you need to uncomment next line into php.ini:

;extension=mysqli

turn into:

extension=mysqli

If it doesn't help you, you should find php\ext folder and set absolute path to mysqli lib like for example

extension=C:\nginx\php\ext\php_mysqli.dll

Unknown database 'lgsl'

Your LGSL is not installed. First you need to create database and after it create a lgsl table. Or you just have wrong configuration settings in config.php.
