You need to create a database on your server for the script to connect to. The file you have is probably a SQL Dump file, which is used to import the tables to the database.
To host it locally, you will need to install a server on your PC. Do a google for Appserve or Wamp.

Good luck.

Or if you don't have the ability to get a database going and can spare the hours upon hours to re-do your script and your database from scratch, I suggest flatfile!
