    How to crearte a Database for VBULLETIN message board?

    Ok, pardon me for being a bit on the new side when it comes to the backend area, but I have uploaded my vbulletin files to a server, and now im supposed to create a database on the server for vbulletin. Is there a short simple explanation on how I can do this? Is this something my host should do? I am clueless.

    umm you should have someone who has done it before install it, OR read the instructions fully, then you will know..

    Like if anyone told you how , you would be missing other things you need to know first so without context its rather a futile task to explain anything right .

              mysql -uroot
              create database VBDATABASENAME;
              use VBDATABASENAME;
              grant all privileges on VBDATABASENAME.* to username identified by 'password';

              Assuming you are using MySQL.

                You have to:

                - create a database ( with mysql )
                - create a user/pass combination
                - autorize the above u/p to connect to database with all privileges.

                then use the install.php to create the tables in the db. You probably have to change the parameters in a config.php file ( local host, db name, db_user, db_password)


                or:

                Get a host with Cpanel AND Fantastico : automatic one click install...

                All my clients love me for that, but sorry I do not host any adult except myself.
