MySQL Database help

[Crispy]

I am attempting to install phpBB 3.0 on my site. I am prompted to enter the Database server hostname or DSN.

I have created a MySQL database for this forum, but I do not know how to point to it. Any help?

The hostname will be localhost

The database name will be your account name followed by an underscore followed by the name you gave the database.

The username will be your account name followed by an underscore followed by whatever username you created to access the database.

The password will be whatever password you assigned for the username.

Thanks, this worked.

I really appreciate the help
