How to create a "dbname" NOT "username_dbname" From Cpanel/WHM?

Hey.

I want to create a new database and name it "newdb" only.

When i try to create a new DB in an account through cpanel, it makes like this "username_newdb"

I want to make it "newdb" only... and not include the username.

How can i do that?

 

I do not believe that is a possibility through cPanel. If you own the server, you can create it via the command line exactly the way you specify.

 

I own the server..

How can i create it through SSH?

I have very less knowledge of maintaining a server...

Thanks.

You should read this, it will let you know how to do it via ssh or myphpadmin

 

If u own the server you can do it via ssh

 

It is not possible. Every time you create a database in cPanel it (database name) will include your username.

 

Yeah its not possible to create it like "newdb". username must be there, I think it doesn't create any problem in having username before the db name. Why you want it to be removed?

 

You can, username must be root:

See Create new database.

Hope that helps,
