WampServer

I have wamp and I'm trying to install phpfox onto my local server. It is asking me to configure my database. It asks for database host, database name, database username, and username password. What should I do to get this information. Do I find this information with wamp?

Goto http: //localhost/phpmyadmin


type in a dbname you want and press create . this will make a blank database for you.


go back to the form and fill in


database host = localhost
database name = NAME YOU FILLED IN ABOVE
database username = root
database password = LEAVE BLANK

Thank you so much. Worked great!

You should create new db acct for each and all new scripts instead using root for everything, which is a very bad practice

To setup DB account, follow this

so what if I already have a existed database before using wampserver to install a forum software locally? where should I put that database in?

Thanks,

Export it from where it is, and then import it in to wheer you now want it. You can use phpMyAdmin to do that as long as its not to large a database

Basically yes. Lookup a tutorial on the web
