The use of dynamic pages or content management systems requires the use of MySQL databases. These databases can be created from the cdmon control panel.
To create a database, first access the hosting management section.
Once you access the hosting management, go to the "Databases" section and click on the MySQL option.
When you access it, just below the connection details you will find the section "Create a new MySQL database". You only need to enter the name you want to assign to the database and click the Create a new MySQL database button.
Next, you need to enter the name of the database you want to create and assign the required encoding. Unless it is necessary to change it due to specific programming requirements, you can create it in UTF-8.
Note: If your hosting is a shared hosting plan, when creating a database you may see the following error message:
This message indicates that a database with the same name already exists in the system. To solve this, modify the database name until you find one that is not already in use in the system.
Once the database has been created, you can start working with it using the access credentials of the
MySQL user, which you can find in the hosting information summary.
