Hi, it's been a while since I had to install drupal on another server. Installing drupal itself is just fine, as configuring the necessary files, although when I want to configure the database by importing the database.mysql file, I get an error (see attachment). Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks, Glenn _________________________________________________________________ Deel je gedachten direct met je vrienden http://messenger.live.com
Database configuration is now done through the installer, so you no longer need to import the mysql files - simply put Drupal in your web directory and point your browser there. You will need to create the database, but setting it up is done when you click the install button. Andrew On 10/3/07, Glenn Wybo <glennwybo@hotmail.com> wrote:

Question is better put to support. In the installation process you will need to know the name of the database server, the name of the database, the database user and the password, Drupal will ask for this info. On 10/3/07, Glenn Wybo <glennwybo@hotmail.com> wrote:

This information is in the included INSTALL.txt file with the download and in the online handbooks as well - http://drupal.org/getting-started On 10/3/07, Victor Kane <victorkane@gmail.com> wrote:

Looks like the mysql dump you are importing is not a mysql file, it's a php code file, I guess it's the database.mysql.inc from the file system, and it's not a dump you can import in no way.. If you follow the instructions of a fresh install you don't need to setup the database data, just to create the database, and drupal will populate the tables and information. If you want to "copy" one site to another site, you will need to do a dump of the database, and then import (is this your intention?), but if you are doing this, you choosed the wrong file.
