# SQL Dump Please????

 * I’ve been struggling for days trying to get WP installed on my site hosted by
   FutureQuest. I can’t figure out why the darn Install.php can’t find the wp-config.
   I’ve gone through the help files and searched google.
 * Anyways, I’ve decided I’ll just build the MySQL tables myself using the documentation,
   but then I realized it would be a LOT easier if someone could just provide me
   a SQL dump of the tables.
 * Anyone got one? I don’t want your data–just the structure. I found on a blog 
   from 2004 a SQL dump for version 1.1 but I think that’s too old.
 * Thanks

 * I dunno
    I tried to use a database from one domain and apply to another, there
   seems to be a pointer in there, it seemed to redirect to the original domain.

 * If you have uploaded all your WP files right, just make sure the wp-config-sample.
   php file is writable..also, make a copy of that file but change it to: wp-config.
   php once, with all your DB connections info in it.
 * But, also, is your domain name actually pointing to a DNS server addy…or is it
   a redirect? I’d just mess around with the wp-config-sample.php file a bit and
   or upload the wp-config.php file (Which is the wp-config-sample.php, changed 
   to wp-config.php), with the actual DB settings, username, password and host informations
   once.
 * Also, make sure all your WordPress files are in ONE folder, the same folder….
   and you made your DataBase, with that username for permissions for “all”! And
   then fill in the fields through the installation process correctly.. Maybe either
   it’s the host’s fault or you’re just mis-spelling something.. never know.

 * As writable, I mean like 666 chmod, or 777. But 777 should be changed right away
   to 666!! For your config.php file I mean..

 * Yeah this is started to drive me nuts. I rebuilt the DB by exporting SQL from
   another domain. I plugged in my own data in the DB and its still wanting to redirect
   to the original domain I generated the db from.
 * I don’t get it. There are 3 tables that have any data.
 * wp_options
    wp_usermeta wp_users
 * I’ve gone through every field and cannot find where the old data is coming from.
 * When I access the login page, the links at the bottom refer to
    1.) An old subdirectory–
   previous to this WP install, I tried to make a different subdir name–changed 
   WordPress to Blog.
 * Now the link back to the blog is using the URL from the domain I got the db tables
   from. Hmmm, where is it getting this from?
 * And the Lost password is trying to send me to the old subdirectory.

 * In the wp_options part of the DB, change the two URL’s of the original to the
   new location URL once. Wonder’s where moshu and podz are when ya need them lol!!

 * Thanks guys. Turns out my answer was found in the first link that spencerp posted.
   It had to do with the CHMOD permissions. Once I followed that, the install and
   reinstall went perfectly smooth.
