Hi, I am new to using this platform and I have no programming knowledge.
I want to know how and where to create the database needed to install Opencart.
I just see the principal screen of opencart and i can't find the option to create.
I hope you can help me.
Your Site Hoster will have all information available to you to enable you to create a new MySql Database on your Server.
The information, to be entered by the Server during setup-procedure into your config.php files (originally both EMPTY of data, and named config-dist.php in your Shop Sub as well as in your Admin Sub, and BOTH TO BE renamed by YOU to config.php, immediately before or after uploading them to the server). The DB-Section in the config.pgp files will look like something like this, after your have successfully set up your Shop. Download BOTH connfig.php Files after installation and keep 'em as refference.
// DB
define('DB_DRIVER', 'mysqli');
define('DB_HOSTNAME', 'yourhost.mysql.db.internal');
define('DB_USERNAME', 'yourname_osli5');
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'yourpassword');
define('DB_DATABASE', 'yourname_osli5');
define('DB_PREFIX', 'os5_');
MAKE SURE to define >('DB_DRIVER', 'mysqli');< , or >('DB_DRIVER', 'mysql');<, but, whatever DB-Engine you chose, use exactly the same Value in your config.sys Lines written. I advise you to use define >mysqli< as DB-Engine default Value, if it can be set on the Server Admin Setup Screen as such
Exctly similar Values have to be entered, when you set up the Database on your Server by use of the Direct Admin Access, as provided by your Hoster.
Good Luck
