Create a database

From the control panel menu, click on the “MySQL Databases” icon and then the “Create new Database” link.



Choose a name for the database that describes what the database is for. For example, enter “chat” if the database is intended for a chat script. The database name is always preceded by your username and an underscore. If you choose “chat” as the name, the database name will be username_chat. The database username is the login name of the database. It can be the same as the database name. In the example above, we have chosen a different login name (gary). As with the database name, your database username will also be preceded by your username and an underscore (username_gary in this case). Once you have selected the database name and username, enter a database password and click on the “Create” button.
