install issue

[razz6768]

Carousel v 3.2

OSC v2.2 rc2a

STS 4.5.8

 

Install was running good till I hit step 14.

 

"Create the database table for flash carousel products. Open database_sql folder and choose appropriate file.

For English run flash_carousel_english.sql file with sql program like phpMyAdmin."

 

The database_sql folder is empty and is also empty in the downloaded archive.

 

I am a newb, can anyone give any detail about how to run this file when I find it?

1) Go to your ISPs admin area for your site.

 

2) Click on the icon for Database administration or Mysql, then find the link for phpmyadmin, it might be hidden away at the bottom but not on all admin sites. If you can’t find this, please consult your ISP's help desk.

 

3) In some cases, you may have to choose which database your OSC tables are located on. If this is the case, please choose using the dropdown box.

 

4) Click on "SQL" on the navigation bar.

 

5) Enter/paste your SQL in the textbox provided or, if you have a file containing the sql commands, click on Import and follow the on screen prompts.

 

6) For both methods click "Go"..

 

7) If all goes well, your SQL query will run successfully
