Cpanel : Create a mysql database and add user with rights

This video tutorial will show you how to create a mysql database and add a user with specific rights to the database (select, edit, delete, etc.). All actions are made from Cpanel.

Firstly we connect to Cpanel by accessing domainName.com/cpanel or domainName.com:2082 (usually the port that’s used by this software/application).

After we’re connected, we point to MySQL Databases under Databases tab. In the coming window, we simply type in the database name under Create New Database title. We’re done now!

We need to have an user for it too! We scroll down until we see Mysql Users -> Create New user. We go trough the procedure, that’s all!

Finally we need to add previously create user to the database by selecting username and database from those dropdowns : on the next screen we choose to select all priviligies
