...HILFE?!

I'm guessing one of two problems, either 1) you haven't set up a MySQL database, or 2) the idiosyncrasies of cpanel have stumped you. Try this procedure ...

1. Set up cpanel

• Get into cpanel (http://www.yourdomain.com/cpanel) and select the MySQL link.
• There should be an entry for "New database". Type "4images" in there and select "create database" of "OK" or whatever.
• Here's something to watch for - Even though you just created a 4images database, it will now be called userid_4images where userid is your userid.
• Create a user for your new database - Type "admin" in the "username" box and a password in the "password" box.
• Click on "Create User".
• Finally, you'll need to give your new user database privileges and you do that further down the page where the heading is "Add users to your database." Pulldown "userid_admin" and "userid_4images", make sure "ALL" is selected and press the "Add user to database" button.
• Voila, you're done and can close the cpanel page.

2. Now perform the 4images installation
The attachment pretty much describes what to type where. Remember that even though your database is "4images" and your database user is "admin", you will need to enter them as userid_4images and userid_admin respectively.

Good luck!
