Okay first I must admit php, sql and perl are all quite new to me. I have been messing with a perl script auction but the auction didnt give me all I wanted... manually having to add add-on after add-on fix script in then.... so i purchased a download of phpauction 2.1
I have several questions most likely dumb ones to the exsperianced coders.
First one is in the password.inc.php where it asks for the 'host of mysql' it currently has 'localhost' do I need to change that? And If I do is it just asking me for my domain.com? Or the domain_com I see in mysql admin page at my host?
Second is path to mysql and such config. But I think this is messing up since my site is in migration to a new webhost and will try the path changes to my numbered address first.
I keep getting path problems and then this as mysql warnings....
Warning: mysql_fetch_row(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/kkay/alldoggifts-www/phpauction/admin/login.php on line 42
but again using the domain name and it is not set to new host yet ( been waiting 5 days, had nameserver change trouble with domain reg. errr )
And last but not least what files and folder do I not need... do I really need those CVS folders? I just used ftp program and it heaved the entire thing through it.

I know the docs folder can go since it is all instructional
Thanks in advance for you experiance with this.
