Installing inventory-management software

[audradh]

Hi,
I am fairly ignorant about all of this. I am trying to install an sql based inventory management software.
The read me file assumes basic knowledge:

1. Upload the files.
2. Run the SQL Query.
3. Change the database specific information in the site.xml file
4. go to index.php and login

1. Am I correct that files should be uploaded to public_html?
2. No problem here. I surmised that I had to first create the database : )
3. OK
4. How do I "go" to index.php? I am guessing that there is a web address (on my domain) that I am missing.

If more information is needed please advise.

Thanks for any feedback,
Best,
Audra

Getting the hang of this...

1. yes, public_html
2. OK
2. OK
4. www.mysite.com/folderthatholdsindex.php

Receiving this error at index.php:

CDatabase::SelectDB() error

Hmmm...
