Hi Bryan,
If you're still at the stage where you're getting the "Database error only visible to Admins" error, then the first step would be to check what that is, because it may be related to the import issue.
What you can do is edit the libs/mysql.inc.php file. Around line 281, you'll see this line:
$showerror = 0;
Change that, to this:
$showerror = 1;
This should then show the actual error and we can go from there.
