Re: [Phphelpdesk-help] Changing the database during install...

[Andrew W. <ajw...@ho...>]

Steven;

To use a different database name,  you need to edit phphelpdesk.mysql
and change the first 3 lines, replace phphelpdesk with whatever
database name you want.  Then edit config/db.conf.php and change
$db_db from phphelpdesk to your database name.   Once done,
create the database by typing mysql < phphelpdesk.mysql and it
should work fine.

Hope that helps;
Andrew
