Installation

[alexandra]

I'm in the Install section now, so the tutorial was a success for me. Now, do I have to have a database that already exists? I tried to go around the enter database address, but it didn't work. Must I have a database first??? Thanks again to anyone that can help me. Alexandra

if u already have a database which is populated, then u must know the database name, username, password, then edit the configure.php files and set in there.

Try using phpMyAdmin:

 

1. Create a blank database.

2. Add username and password with all privileges.

3. Use the information in step 2 above to start your installation.

 

Good luck! :thumbsup:

Are you installing this locally on your desktop or on a remote web host?
