Make sure you understand what those settings mean. You need to know the name of the server that is running mysqld, probably localhost. And you need to know the name of the database. If you were running a database named mydomain.com, then you should be able to execute this on command line: mysql -h localhost mydomain.com Keep in mind that you need to set the correct username and password. It's customary to make an httpd or nobody user with no password that can only connect to the database from localhost. In fact, it's probably best to only allow connections from localhost or other secure hosts with FreeTrade. > In the bug forum someone said to make sure that the global settings must be > set to connect to the db, I have set up the connect to my db, the only > change is my db is called my domain name, except for the www., now I have > had success with running other db's off of this setup including the > phpMyAdmin setup program. and I checked the settings against the global > settings, and they match, and once again I having been using this phpMyAdmin > program to admin my db.

I don't know how phpMyAdmin runs scripts. I always use command line arguments. You need to do something like this: mysql mydomain.com <build.sql Watch for errors, because if tables already exist, the script will abort. In that case, you'll have to drop the tables.
