In the instructions, in this section: III. Database Modifications, you need to do all the stuff listed in there. The first thing is an ALTER TABLE statement. What you do is copy the entire line(s) and paste it into the Query textarea (window) in phpMyAdmin, then hit Go. Now since you say there was no table to load the stuff from the file into, you probably missed the next part, which starts with CREATE TABLE forumnews (. Copy that entire section, from that line through ) TYPE=MyISAM;, paste that into the Query window, and Go. Make sure you have done the three queries after that as well (if you're not sure if you did or didn't, you can check by going to your admin cp, vBulletin Options page, and look for a section called "Forum News"; it will probably be the last section). After you have done all that, then you should try to import the sources.sql file, by doing just what you said you did the first time.
