Do not make the database yourself but use the installation procedure. Read the documentation!!!

Next time also post in the correct forum, this one is for the poctnuke hack..

use PHPmyAdmin to create the database and enter that database in the field. Make sure that Database User & password are correct also.

i understand i can create a database with PHPmyAdmin my question is how much fields are there required

You don't have to create the fields, just the database.

When you run install, coppermine creates all the tables and fields it needs, in the database you made.

dommy, I guess you're mixing up the words "database" and "database table".
You need at least one database - if you're webhosted and your webhost will let you have a database, then there's probably already one set up that you could use (it's recommended to use an existing database if you're planning to bridge coppermine with a bbs later, or if you actually run postNuke as the board you posted in suggests). You won't have to create any tables with phpMyAdmin - once a database exists that coppermine can use, the coppermine install routine will create the tables for you.
