I am a newbie....so dont be too harsh . But i got the SQL database to unload into MySQL and when it tries to go to the "success.php" page it doesnt work...It just turns white. I really dont know what to do i am totally lost. I have been working on it for about an hour but i am not sure what to do.

You have an error somewhere (e.g. a simple typo), but your webserver is configured such that it doesn't display error messages. That makes it a bit difficult to locate the problem ...

Since you're already through with the install script, my guess is that the problem is with lib-common.php. Make sure the one line you changed in there has the proper path to config.php and that the path is enclosed in single quotes and that the line ends in a semicolon. It should look something like

required_once( '/your/path/to/config.php' );

You don't need to run the install script again, it's just a matter of tracking down that error.

Hmm didnt seem to work, I looked through the file and i hadnt changed the path in it yet but even when I did and reinstalled it still didnt work. It may be the CHMOD thing...because i have no idea what that is besides it gives commands....I dont know where it is located or anything like that. Thanks for your help.

Try this: Open your lib-common.php in an editor and find the line that starts with error_reporting( E_ERROR | .... Before that line, insert this new line:

ini_set ("display_errors", "1");

Call up your site again and see if it displays any error messages now.
