Host Name

[tamiep]

I am setting up Joomla and I don't know what my host name is. Probably a stupid question.

 

Also, I need to know "username and password of the database root user" is that the same as my username and password for my cpanel?

For the host put 'localhost'

 

And yes, the username and password are as you created in cpanel. Remember that the database and user both have your cpanel prepended to them

 

Database = 'cpanelusername_dbname'

user = 'cpanelusername_dbuser'
