<p>Original page content from 31-Oct-2008</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>In order to properly configure your database you need to edit some of the configuration files:<br /> <br /> * open the file ''initialize/db.inc.php'' in a text editor and edit the values of the following variables:<br /> ** &lt;code&gt;$databaseName&lt;/code&gt; must contain the name of your MySQL database (example: &quot;literature&quot;)<br /> ** &lt;code&gt;$username&lt;/code&gt; must contain the name of the MySQL user that's used with your MySQL database (example: &quot;litwww&quot;)<br /> ** &lt;code&gt;$password&lt;/code&gt; must contain the password that's required to access your MySQL database (example: &quot;%l1t3ratur3?&quot;)<br /> * similarly, open the file ''initialize/ini.inc.php'' and edit all values of the contained variables to fit your needs (please see the comments within the file for further guidance)<br /> <br /> Note that the refbase ''install.php'' script adds a new MySQL user to the MySQL database which is appropriate for use with the refbase application ([[Add MySQL User|more info]]).<br /> <br /> == Shared database ==<br /> <br /> If you are not able to create a new database for your refbase install, you must check that any existing database you configure does not contain tables whose names conflict with the [[MySQL tables]] used by refbase. refbase table names are specified in files ''initialize/db.inc.php'' &amp; ''install.sql'' (or ''update.sql'') and can be changed there to avoid any name conflicts with existing tables. See [[Installing refbase#Installation over an existing database|Installation over an existing database]] for more info.<br /> <br /> [[Category:Installation]]</div>
