What would be the process for enabling MySQL on a VIP+ sub-domain?

But I'm not using it on a sub-domain like you are (I think) perhaps that's where the issue is?

You got me worried for a minute there!
I use .htaccess on my 'standard' hosted sites - all seems to be working normally for me.
Are you installing a script or application that could be clearing out the file?

As soon as I hit f5 in filezilla, the file deletes in the sr space, but it doesn't in my VIP space.

EDIT: This now works but the htaccess is still being auto deleted. It would be wayyyy preferable to use .htaccess redirect as opposed to the slower deprecated meta redirect.
The htaccess file is being auto deleted. Why?

I use a .htaccess redirect to the VIP site /subdirectory.
Works like a dream.

Didn't work.
I created a new database in my VIP account, ftp'd my new subdomain 'sr' webspace, and when I tried to install Joomla it said couldn't connect to MySQL.

VIP MySQL can only be used on the VIP servers (it's run locally to the VIP account), there is no remote access like our other MySQL service.
