Ken2k7 Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Well the DB is already in the server. You don't have to upload it. It's not something you can upload. Well... I wouldn't say exactly that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbfirebreather Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Who's your hosting provider? They should normally have information about where to access your database and the credentials for a mysql_connect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artworthy Posted May 13, 2009 Author Share Posted May 13, 2009 Well I created my site then the db on localhost using wamp... loading pages on remote as they were done. But no uploaded pages will load into the browser (after I built the db) with error mess saying the db is missing on server. I'm with startlogic... and thought they could help but came here first.

kbfirebreather Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 In your control panel on startlogic does it say anything about a database? When you signed up with startlogic did it tell you how many DB's you get? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mchl Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Look for wampserver's icon in the tray. Click on it and select phpmyadmin. Using it you can export your database to SQL file and upload to your server (check with your hosting provider for instructions) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artworthy Posted May 13, 2009 Author Share Posted May 13, 2009 I've been with startlogic for years...built 3 static sites there. My pkg gives me several db's. Should I just contact them to find out hoe to import. And where is the db on wamp or dw cs4? That's the 64 cent question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mchl Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Like I said. Use phpmyadmin to export it to SQL format. Physically it is in c:\wamp\bin\mysql5.x\data, but you can't do much with these files. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artworthy Posted May 13, 2009 Author Share Posted May 13, 2009 yeah, I got to that export page but did see any ftp "where going to" info input Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
