    You need to create a new database and then reference that new instance during the installer. The install scripts will create all of the databse objects for you.

    All depends on your hosting setup. Chances are, they have a cPanel. In there, there should be an option for MySQL databases. Create the DB and also a user. Assign the user to the DB. Note all names and passwords. Then, during setup, reference what you just created.

    This is correct. Set up your MySql database in cpanel, then use the "host name" that the webhost gives you. If they have not given you a "host name" yet, try using "localhost" in the blank for "host name" when installing Joomla. If that does not work, you will need to contact your webhost for it.


    You will hopefully be able to create the database and user ( of that database ) with its password in the "MySql Wizard" section of your cpanel.


    Here is a link to the installation guide page : LINK


    Good luck.

    just create a NEW mySQL database from your cPanel
    Then FTP to your websites files:
    Find joomlas 'CONFIGURATION.PHP' file
    edit it by entering your username/pass/ and mySQL database name
    save/ exit

    run:
    yourwebsite.com/joomla_directory/administrator

    Or

    If you installed joomla to your root then go to:
    yourwebsite.com/administrator


    Hope i helped :)

    For fast and ease creation of database use the database wizard on you cpanel.
