Help, I don't understand how to install

[haraaz]

Hello

I am a total newbie in everything that has to do with mysql, sen cart and webhosts etc...

Anyway, I managed to actually get a domain, a host and to upload the zencart files to the public_html folder and all that.

So far so good.

Now, when I go to my site and get to the "install zencart" thing, it asks me for a database host, database user name, database name and password. I have no idea what to input there?!

And also, I get these messages upon installation:

1. "Your PHP configuration has one or more of the following functions marked as "disabled" in your server's PHP.INI file:

* set_time_limit
* exec"

2. "ATTENTION: Problems Found
ERROR - Cannot proceed until problems are resolved.

* CURL requires SSL support. Please notify webmaster or hosting company. 1 => Protocol https not supported or disabled in libcurl more info..."


Please help!

As described in the installing instructions you have to create a database, add an db user and generate a db password, all through you cpanel. The database host name is in most cases localhost.

For the error messages you will need to reference to your host provider.
