Hi,

I am after uploading my forums to my brinkster account and about to configure the 'SQL_server_connection.asp' found in the admin directory. But I need to have a a database created and to be dead honest, its double-dutch to me how to create one and how and where to put it on my brinkster account...

...so if anybody could explain to me as simple as possible how I do this, I would really appreciate it.

Regards,

Dave

If you have a free brinkster account it's a no go, unless you have their well overpriced developer account you won't have sql server suppor (unless they do addons) you need to contact them for the servername, userid and password.

Has your host given you an SQL Server database?

If you are using a Brinkster free account then they will have certainly NOT given you an SQL Server database and you will need to download the 'Lite' version of Web Wiz Forums that is written for the free hosting accounts from companies like Brinkster.
