I just created an account with coolfreepages which give free PHP and MySQL hosting service.
I downloaded a file from http://www.phpbb.com and uploaded it to http://maniax.iwebland.com/ with the username, password. The SQL Database Name, account name and password was also provided.
I want to know that can a whole board run on a 50 MB HDD space for lifetime ????
Now I want the following details :
1. The phpbb Board ask for Database Type which one should i choose :
MySQL 3.x
MySQL 4.x
PostgreSQL 7.x
My SQL Server 7/2000
MS Access [ODBC]
MS SQL Server [ODBC]
2. The phpbb Board asks for Database Server Hostname / DSN, what should i enter.
3. The phpbb Board asks for Prefix for tables in database, what should i enter.
4. It requires Domain Name, what should i enter.
5. It requires Server Port, what should i enter.
6. It requires Script path, what should i enter.
Please help me with the above information to setup my board.
Thank You.
PLEASE HELP ME !!!

Really depends on how much traffic you get, but lets just say that right now, even this board is well below that limit.Spêêd-Rô¢k wrote:I just created an account with coolfreepages which give free PHP and MySQL hosting service.

That would be the host the server is on...again, probably localhost.2. The phpbb Board asks for Database Server Hostname / DSN, what should i enter.
Whatever you want as the prefix for your tables... You can easily keep it default.3. The phpbb Board asks for Prefix for tables in database, what should i enter.
