Installation
Install the graphical administration utilities by copying the eSuite4X 2.0 folder to your Applications folder. If you don't want to use the Dockling you can copy the folder to any place you like. 

If you want to use the Dockling activate it by double-clicking the Dockling Icon. The Dockling is made for Mac OS X 10.0.4 and 10.1  but should also be running on other releases. To avoid application conflicts for the Dockling remove old releases of SQL4X Manager from your Applications folder.

You need a working MySQL installation to run SQL4X Manager. You can use Apple's MySQL-Installer for Mac OS X Server, SQL4X from http://www.macosguru.de or any other MySQL on any operating system.

To set up a new MySQL database server you can use the SQL4X Assistant and the MySQL Manager. Both are designed to work with the MySQL distribution from Apple and the SQL4X distribution. There are several ways how to install MySQL, therefore we can not gurantee that these tools work with every other installation of MySQL.
