 * You need to check your local web server’s documentation with regard to setting
   up a new database.

 * I’m sorry that you do not like the answer but there’s very little we can do to
   help you here. Teaching you how to use your web server is really beyond the scope
   of these forums and is best answered on a forum/resource dedicated to your particular
   web server software

 * thank you esmi and dang621,
    but browser error given ———————————————————- The
   page isn’t redirecting properly
 *  Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address
   in a way that will never complete.
    This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling
   or refusing to accept cookies. ————————————————————-
