Title: need help with installation
Post by: vhsource on March 09, 2008, 01:10:29 AM
Okay, I've never done this before and I'm completely lost as to what I need to do. So, any help would be greatly appreciated. What I've done so far is unzip everything and moved the coppermine and php folders into my sever folder. But, I forgot to get the MySQL so, I got that and I don't know how to set that up for coppermine. So, any help would be lovely. Thanks!

We cannot help you with creating a database, as it depends on your webhost.
You should ask them the question how you can create a database.

That is indeed a webhost (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_hosting_service)

No - we don't know it. Ask you webhost. If it's a free webhost, you can hardly ask them questions directly, so your best bet would be to read the FAQ and documentation they provide. If that doesn't help, google for your questions. We can't and won't help you with your webserver related stuff - that's beyond the scope of this board. If you're absolutely green when it comes to webhosting, you maybe should get some more experience and start with someting less complicated than a mysql-driven application first.
