You should take a look to the DocumentRoot line in your httpd.conf and once
you have located that dir, upload it.
By default, yes, /var/www/html is where you're supposed to upload it.

Once you have created the user and the database, try this:
mysql -D database_you_want_to_use -u user_you_want_to_user -p
Hope this helps
