MySql

Is there any way to determine the name of your MySql database?

I need to install a forum, and have all the MySql info but the DB name. I dont have time to wait for the tech support email.

You may be able to figure it out. Log into mysql at the command line by using mysql -u<your username here> -p, then type in your password. At the mysql> prompt, type in "show databases;". Look around and see if anything's familiar. If you're done, just type in exit.

Do you have phpmyadmin? If so, you can try to login to it and look at the DB name.

Hope this helps.
