If I read this correct, then I think you have no made a database on your server..?

brooklyn,

both of these guys are correct. i take it you have never installed a dynamic script before on your server. that is cool, thats what we are here for. as you seen from the install of this wonderful script, you are required to provide certain information. most specifically its looking for some information from you in order to connect to the dbase so that it will open a line of communications and be able to do the installation of the sql file.

you need to go to your cpanel (hopefully you have cpanel) you will need to go to mysql from the database section of your cpanel. you will need to create a dbase, take into consideration if you are running cpanel, most of the time, your dbase is goin to be prefixed with your username on the hosting account. so you create the dbase, you then create a username and password. after you create the dbase, the username and password, you need to grant all priveleges to that user on that database. and that is it for the creation of the dbase.

now the same parameters must be passed to the dolphin install script.

later,
