Database name
It's best to create a separate database for every script or third-party application you use. That way, if one database becomes corrupt, it doesn't affect multiple scripts or applications.
Learn how to create a database.
Host name
The cPanel database host name is
localhost:3306.
Important: Custom PHP scripts that are coded with
mysql as the host name (the database name in the previous Turbify Web Hosting Control Panel) will need to be updated to work with cPanel, the new Web Hosting control panel. You'll need to change the host name to
localhost:3306, or your applications won't work.
