Where are my mySQL files?

[wjstev0]

I just go through reading a post from one of the moderators about using an ftp program to upload new mySQL files. I also noticed it said not to use the same name and password for the mySQL. Which I did when I created that portion of my account. So I created a new user and password but all I see when I log on is the root directory for my package am I missing something again or do I just ftp them to the root. There is nothing visible in the directory structure that remotely resembles what I think I set up.

Help???


Thanks

Are you trying to upload mysql tables created on your local machine?
If so this cannot be done.

You will have to export the info as sql and then reload it using phpmyadmin or someother mysql client.

I've spent two days trying to install the phyadmin with little success. I could get it to run but it didn't find my databases.

Just to difficult

If you are using mysql on your local machine you can also use it on powwebs server just add to the command line -hserver.powweb.com and it should connect via the internet to powwebs server instead of your local mysqld.

You can also use a Windoze mysql client to do the same thing. I use mysql-front but there are others out there.

Have a look at www.mysql.com

I can see I will have to write a phpmyadmin installer :)
