I am setting up a new site on a server. I have uploaded the drupal installation and am having trouble with the empty SQL database. I used phpMyAdmin to create a new SQL database and when I try to install my site in my browser, I get a page of error messages that seem to indicate there are no tables in the SQL database.

I have searched through all the documentation and can not find any advice as to what else I can do. Below are the error messages ... Thanks for any help!

Did you import the database? If you installed it locally, then moved it, you'd need to import the database into the new server. An empty database isn't enough...

I have not imported a database - I wanted to start populating it on the server. I have created an empty database. I must be missing something conceptually, I guess. I thought I could start with an empty database on the server and start creating my site there.

I'd recommend starting from scratch, with a fresh installation. Install it directly on the server.

I did just that - and discovered that my host has a shortcut utility on their control panel page that let me set up a Drupal site with one click! I wish I'd known that a while ago (LOL)!

Thank you for your support and suggestion.
