Chapter 19. APPENDIX A: Create the MySQL database that PostNuke will use

If you have root access to the database, a command such as:

"mysqladmin -u root -p create <dbname>"

...will create the database. Replace "<dbname>" with the name of the database to create, for example, "rogue".

If you do not have root access to the database, you will need to create the database in another way before installation can continue.

Please consider using a tool such as phpMyAdmin (http://phpwizard.net/projects/phpMyAdmin) to automate the database creation process. To create the database using phpMyAdmin, type the name of the new database (for example, "rogue") and click "Create". The database will be created.
