Hi! I'm with the Installation Wizard in the Database Configuration and I need help with the Database Server Hostname, that I don't know what is in there

I read that I can see it in phpmyadmin (http://blinkdagger.com/php/what-is-my-ho...l-database) but had an error with the Database Name. I don't know exactly what to write there either.

Thanks for your help... and sorry for my English xD

what host are you using?

Is: http://hospedando.com.mx/

so, you cant find the database name, database user name, and localhost name?

Yeah, DB Hostname, Username, Password, Name...

You'll have to ask the host what to put there if you don't know what they are.

well, it should be in your cpanel in mysql databases, if not, do what matt said and ask your host,

hoped some of that helped

Well first you'll have to create a database, giving you the database name. With some hosts your create a database user with a password, so that's those 2 done, but sometimes the username and password needed is what you use to log into your host control panel.

You host will be able to tell you exactly what to put, all we can do is give a pointer to what it should be.

Edit: Damn me always spelling 'use' as 'sue'

Ok, I'll ask. Thanks
