View Full Version : MySQL databases?

I'm having a bit of trouble understanding the installation instructions. First, do I need to manually create the database information in my MySQL database from those files in review/admin/sql? Is there a way to import that information that I'm just missing?

Also, the instructions state this:
"5. If your server has a version earlier than 4.1.0 do a search and replace for the following:

Replace $_POST with $HTTP_POST_VARS
Replace $_GET with $HTTP_GET_VARS"

I'm guessing you mean the version of MySQL, but in what file am I searching for these entries?

I've installed a few php scripts before with no problems, but I'm just not understanding the instructions for this product.

Hello,

Use your webhost control panel to create a database. Once the database use whatever tool you have to create tables. Most of the time it is phpMyAdmin. Take the sql files included with the script and use them to create the table. To do that from phpMyAdmin, click the sql tab and paste the contents of each of the .sql files into there and click "Go".

Chances are very good your php version is higher than 4.1 so you shouldn't have to worry about that.

If it's still not making any sense, you may want to consider hiring someone to do it. Maybe your webhost will do it, but if not I offer an install service for $25 and can be ordered here - http://review-script.com/purchase.php

Hope that helps,
