Hello all! Very simple question from a beginner. I’d like to set up my dev. server to match my wordpress environment on-line. The instructions in chapter 2 (Database Driven Website) on creating a database are clear (and I set one up). But I don’t see anywhere where I can establish a username within mysql.
On my host server, when establishing a database, I can simply type in this hostname in a box.
This is requested in the wp-config.php file: /** MySQL database username */
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘my_hostname’);
So what do I type after this prompt?
mysql>
- We learned how to set up a password for our mysql, does this also govern the individual databases, or would I need to establish usernames and passwords for individual databases to mirror the environment on my server?
Thanks in advance!
