    I have a non-traditional host to work with. He has no Cpanel or PhpMyAdmin for me to use to install the database. He says he can create it if I give him “the sql file with the schema and initial values.” How do I do this? Many thanks!

    WordPress builds its own database when you install it. Which, of course, means that you need a database. So, there is no SQL file.

    But there is an easy answer. Get “He” to create an empty MySQL database and MySQL User ID with full access to that database. WordPress will do the rest with its install.php program. You will need to know the database name, MySQL user ID, password and host name (often localhost) to use to access the database.
