Cannot find database server

Recommended Posts

I have not installed a UNIX-based gateway before, and am a bit lost. I have gotten the catalog files uploaded to the website, opened the install wizard, but am not entering the correct path to the database server - error message:Unknown MySQL Server Host 'http' (1). What is the database file called and what is the address to connect to it?

First you have to go to your web hosting control panel and create a blank database. You also need to know your mysql user name and password.

 

Then go to http://www.yourdomain.com/install and begin the install procedure. Your db server is probably 'localhost', but check with your hosting company to be certain.
