hi all,

i am working with php version 4.3.3, linux, not safe mode enabled.

i was not able to use install.php on my server or to manually install phpdig using the instructions provided in phpdig-doc-en.html, because my service provider does not allow new databases to be created by the user. i don't know why, but that's how it is. so, once you are assigned a database to work with, that is all you get.

to work around this, i took the code from init_db.sql to create the necessary tables in my pre-assigned database. i'm not sure how to proceed from here.

1. is there an easy way to populate the tables (i.e. insert the words to be excluded, etc.)?

2. do i need to do anything to the database itself other than ensure it is configured with a user name and password, host name, etc.?

i am getting the search.php page fine, and have tried searching for words i know are on my site. of course, i'm getting no results, because the tables are only partially set up.

thanks.
