Hello,
I have installed Drupal, but in the process it was not allowing me to use MySQL. Instead I was able to install it using SQLite.
I have the following questions:
1. How do I uninstall Drupal and remove the database?
2. Where is the database and how do I drop it?
3. How can I use MySQL so that I can manage it using PHPMyAmdin?

Thank you in advance,

Hesam

I'm in the same boat. I happened to do this when also migrating to a new host. The DB's are probably in your drupal installed directory.

I have read about migrating from sqlite to mysql but I'm not sure about how this might impact a current drupal install.

I assume...

Export sqlite db
convert it to mysql manually using a text editor
create the db's in phpmyadmin
import the converted dbs.

change the sites/yourdomain.com/settings.php file to point to mysql instead of sqlite.

Like I said, this is my assumption. I have NOT done it. But I hope this helps.
