i got it working, i just re installed it, but I had to delete the existing database, create a new one and update it with the sql file that i saved.  I was originally just leaving it and telling it to use the original database, but i guess it did not like it.  So i did have to make a whole new database for it to work.  so its going.  thanks all for your help

oh yeah.. if you told it that..(use the original database) it earase everything and gave you a fresh install.. told me that sooner and this would have helped...
Glad to hear it works now...

right, I had a plan, that it would use the database as it was, without me having to wipe it, and then apply the backup sql file.  i thought it would automatically see it.  guess not.  thanks for your help.
