I don't know what you mean by

I'm finding the file called that I can put in value of my database, what is it name? Which folder contain it?
If your hosting provider created your database, or if you use cPanel, you should have the database name, database username, and database password. The only file you should need to worry about is the database dump file you create with a tool like phpMyAdmin.
Once you get your database dump file created (read the notes in bigdump.php regarding this), do the following.
1. Open bigdump.php in a text editor and look for the following lines:
// Database configuration
$db_server = "localhost";
$db_name = "";
$db_username = "";
$db_password = "";
Change them to the values of your database, like so;
// Database configuration
$db_server = "localhost";
$db_name = "[color=FF0000]mydatabase[/color]";
$db_username = "[color=FF0000]myusername[/color]";
$db_password = "[color=FF0000]mypassword[/color]";
Just a little further down in the file you should see the following:
// Other Settings
$filename = ""; // Specify the dump filename to suppress the file selection dialog
Change that value to the name of the database dump file. For example, when you exported your database, you should have ended up with something like my_database.sql. Put the filename in the definition above, like so:
// Other Settings
$filename = "[color=FF0000]my_database.sql[/color]"; // Specify the dump filename to suppress the file selection dialog
Upload your database file and bigdump.php into the same directory on your server. Then execute the bigdump.php script by calling it from your browser, like so:
http://yourdomain.com/bigdump.phpI hope this is a little more clear.

Insanity can be defined as "doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results."
Stupidity is not a crime. Therefore, you are free to go.
