Creating a MySQL Database

The MySQL database allows you to store a lot of information with ease of access.

Before using the database, first you must create one. Also, you need to create at least one MySQL user to access the database.

Step 1

At your cPanel, in the "Databases" section, click on "Manage My Databases".

Step 2

Here, you must type the database name, then click at "Next Step".

Step 3

NOTE: If everything worked so far, you will see a success message in the upper corner of your screen.

Now, you need to create a database user. Fill in the username and password (it needs to meet the security requirements), you may also use the "Password Generator" if you want to.

Then, click on "Create User".

Step 4

Now, you need to assign access privileges to your newly created user, or grant him all privileges by clicking on "ALL PRIVILEGES".

When you are done, click on "Make Changes".

A success message should be displayed.
