Mysql

[Phrozen]

i've finally found my cms i'm going to use. Its just that it requires a mysql db and thats where i get confused. The form that it requires me to fill out says

Database Host:
Database Username:
Database Password:
Database Name:
Table Prefix:

and i have no clue what it's talking about, absolutely 0%. i know how to setup the easy components but not sure how to fill out the form. Any help is appreciated

You have to create your database in cPanel that you will be using, you can do this through the MySQL icon. Once in there you will create a database along with a username and password. It will look something like this:
Database Host: localhost
Database Username: cpanelusername_username
Database Password: Whatever you set
Database Name: cpanelusername_dbasename
Table Prefix: whatever you want

Databasehost : localhost or x10hosting.com
Database username : user_subdomain.com
Database password : yourpassword
Database name : name_subdomain
Table prefix : this should already be set

I am pretty sure I got this right try it and see you can always change it later

EDIT : LOL well you beat me to it, and I see I was wrong ....double whammy LOL

sorry for the double post but i can't edit my last one. But i have done everything i needed but i just wanted to know how you get specific page to be the index page on your sub domain. Like you want phpnuke portal to show up when you type http://____.x10hosting.com without going http://____.X10hosting.com/phpnuke/index.php etc... i have created a php page to be the index page but whenever i go to my site http://rod.x10hosting.com/ it goes to the index directory *no specific page only a listing of whats on my webpage* when i really want it to go to http://rod.x10hosting.com/Index.php . Can anyone help me?

You mean root? You have to delete any html files like postinfo.html. Then you can install your cms at root directory. ie subdomain.x10hosting.com.
