.sql script doesn't work properly

Hi

I tried to install a php script on a client's website. It's called Article Site Builder, and instructions include:

1. unzip the files then upload them to your server under the html root folder.
2. Execute database.sql script on MySQL server to create necessary tables
*OPEN THE FILE AND ENTER YOUR DATABASE NAME FIRST!
3. Modify config.php file and set the following variables:
$USER_VAR['SQL_HOST']="localhost";
$USER_VAR['SQL_USER']="your_DB_username";
$USER_VAR['SQL_PASS']="your_DB_password";
$USER_VAR['SQL_DB']="your_mySQL_database name";
4. Modify permissions on the /output directory inside the ASB main folder to 777 (full privileges).

I have followed these instructions as accurately as I could. But when I run the index.php script, there are a lot of messages saying a bunch of tables can't be found, which means none of the tables were installed, which they should have been when I ran step 2. above.

While I ran it, they all looked like they were being created. There was output on the page and no obvious error messages.

So I figure they were just created in the wrong place. The file called database.sql is in a folder /asb/ inside the /public_html/ folder on the site -- but I wonder is there some extra instruction I need to give so that the tables are created elsewhere?

So to be such a dweeb -- it's the first time I've ever played with SQL outside of just using Fantastico which does everything for me.

Thanx
