Topic: Newbie need Helps !!!!

I am using Free Host of www.t35.com
I uploaded PunBB Forum but I don't know how to install from something below :


Database type ==== I choose MySQL     
Database name   ==== what should I type ?
Database username      ==== what should I type ?
Database password   ==== what should I type ?
Table prefix   ==== what should I type ?

Help me for them
I typed what I think and Install
It said something wrong in MySQL
Thanks
I'm the beginning of PHP and MySQL so I don't know about them !

Re: Newbie need Helps !!!!

Datebase name should be whatever your database is called, same thing with username and password.
You can choose table prefix to something you whan, like forum_ or punbb etc. this prefix will be added to each of the tables punbb uses in the database.

Give us your errormessages to so that we can tell you whats wrong smile

No, you can not. You're not allowed to run MySQL without paying for it.
