I'm not going to PM you the information I'm about to supply you for the benefit of the rest of the community. I hope you'll excuse me. MySQL is a free (and open-source) server program that can be obtained easily and run on almost any computer. Yes, you can also create a database using said software on your home computer. The only thing is that queries wouldn't be processed if your computer is not active, and therefore most sites use MySQL installed on computer that their sole function is to act as a server (sometimes for other things besides being a Database Management System). Look here for downloading the actual software (I recommend the "Windows Essentials" or "Windows ZIP/Setup.EXE" packages for MS Windows), and here is a page from the MySQL manual for guiding you through the whole process of installing MySQL on your computer. Good luck, and if you need further assistance please post to this thread as opposed to private messages.

When you install a Linux machine, MySQL comes automatically with Linux, it's free for a non-commercial usage.

Err, I don't understand this sentence a bit, Linux is a kernel, so a Linux machine is a computer which has Linux installed, GNU is environment for the kernel and that environment can have anything you want, including MySQL, but a lot of distributions don't really include mysql automatically.. So if you have Linux installed (the Kernel), that doesn't mean you have mysql, you have mysql only if it is installed (from sources or as binary) by some install script or by you.

To complete what seec77 says i recommend that you also download the MySql Gui Tools. The MySql Gui Tools is a set of applications for administering MySQL Server and working with data, this includes in a single bundle all the GUI tools developed by MySql: - MySQL Administrator: Tool for administer and monitor your MySql environment, database management and maintenance.
- MySQL QueryBrowser: Tool for working with your database data, such as creating, executing, and optimizing SQL queries.
- MySQL MigrationToolkit: Tool for migrate proprietary databases to MySQL.
- MySQL Workbench: Tool for database modeling, such design and create schemas.
I'm not 100% sure that this bundle works with MySql versions prior to 5. Best regards,

Sorry, I was probably not clear enough. You cannot install simply a Linux kernel on a system. Usually, you buy a Linux distro (from Redhat or from Mandrake for instance) or you download from the internet a set of .iso files, you burn them on CD's, and you boot your machine from the first CD in order to install Linux. When you boot from the installation CD, usually the installer asks you what you want to install, and usually, the mysql server is included in the installation media and is automatically handled by the automatic install program started when you boot from the install CD. So, usually, when you install a Linux machine from a "standard" distro, mysql is included and very often it's automatically installed. Of course, mysql is also available for Windows and for several proprietary Unix systems. Then, it has to be purchased as a separate product.

If your web hosting service is AstaHost or Trap17, go to your cPanel and add a database and a database user. The direct link is: https://yoursite.trap17.com:2083/frontend/r.../sql/index.htmlReplace yoursite.trap17.com with the actual domain name.  If you are running your own server with MySQL and PHP, you MUST have enough knowledge of how to use MySQL if you have a server running for your site

Mysql And User File_priv
(0) HI, I've hit the grain while trying to import file to mysql database - I need to enable file
permissions of the database user but this seems not possible with most of the hosting providers.
The problem is to set file_priv of the database user to "Y" . This is done in the "user" table of
the maintanance database named "mysql". cPanel doesn't allow this. Via the cPanel you can only
allow privileges on table querries but you cannot grant host file privileges to the database user -
which makes querries like: "LOAD DATA INFILE 'filename' INTO TABLE tablen....
