Help setting a directory up?

Im with streamline.net and all i had to do was upgrade to the power user which cost me an extra £15. Which gives me 5 databases.

Ok i think they have set a database for me because they have give me this info.

Here are your Mysql details:
Mysql Username: -
Mysql Password: -
Mysql Hostname: -
Database Name: -
PHPMyAdmin: -



"They gave me the details but obviuosly i left them blank"

But tbh im really new to this and dont have a clue what i have to do next.

I have paid for phpld so have a directory template but i dont no what to do?

Could someone please help

Thanks in advance Nick

Thanks i have that tutorial save in my favourite.

Im not sure that they have setup a database for me, Just gave me my details that i need to login or whatever!? i dunno this is really annoyin me!

So if anyone can help me setup a database that would be good?

 

Just fill the database details when you install your phpld directory for the first time. They will ask the mysql details when you start installing the directory.

 

Im lost i hav uploaded the files.

Changed the permissions of

include/config.php

temp/
temp/adodb
temp/cache
temp/templates

to 777

but now i am supposed to use the installer but i dont no how!?

if i click http://making-money-online-auctions.co.uk/phpld

i get an internal server error

 

make sure you uploaded the .htaccess file into that same making-money-online-auctions.co.uk/phpld <--- folder

 

.htaccess file ???? what do you mean?
