[TechAsh]

If you mean MySQL server name/host then it'll be 'localhost'.

I cant access /smf Can somebody help me

 

[TechAsh]

Try installing SMF by using Fantastico in cPanel. It'll set everything up for you.

 

[felas08]

but not the beta is it?
SMF 2.0 Beta 3.2

 

[TechAsh]

I don't think so. No.

Exactly what information do you need?

Database Server Settings

These are the settings to use for your database server. If you don't know the values, you should ask your host what they are.

Servername:
Username:
Password:
Database name:
Table prefix:

servername: localhost
username: You set that in cpanel, database area, when creating a database user
password: You set that in cpanel, database area, when creating a database user
databasename: You set that in cpanel, database area, when creating adatabase
Table prefix: can be anything you want, if you don't plan on having more then one forum in the same database, use the default one.

Nice Thank You It Works Now!
I had problem with database.
this server automatic ads my <server name> to database to my database.

I type at Add Database: SMF

It show so <serveraccountname>_smf as database name

yes, it adds that to allow for more variations and easier nameings as we all share one database install, per server (otherwise if one user said they wanted a database called forum no one else would be able to use that)
