   directory.

2. Load the database definition file (publication/publication.mysql) using the
   tool of your choice (e.g. phpmyadmin). For mysql and command line
   access use:

     mysql -u user -p drupal < publication/publication.mysql

   Replace 'user' with the MySQL username, and 'drupal' with the
   database being used.
