This tutorial will show you how to set up your MySQL and your phpMyAdmin
with ease, regardless of whether you are going to be using PHP
Nuke or PHP Nuke Platinum. The process is still the same.


-Log into your CPanel with your User Name and Password.

-Click on MySQL icon

-Now, we need to create a database also known as Db ,
Your User
Name will make up part of the necessary details, but you don't need to do this
as it will be done automatically. The User Name Is the same as the one used
to log into your CPanel.

-In the box indicated, add a name for your Db.

-now click add db

-Okay, now thats done, we need to create a specific Db Username & Password

thats right below fill in info and click create

-Now make sure that in Privileges, that the "All"
box has been ticked,Once that is done, you can now click on the
"Add User to Db" button,

-Okay, now we have phpMyAdmin open

-Now click on the named Db

-Now click on the "SQL" tab

-Depending on whether you are using Nuke or Nuke Platinum, this file be called
nuke.sql or platinum.sql. This file should be located in the sql folder of the extracted
application you previously downloaded. Click the "Browse" button and find the said file

-Now click the "Go" button to upload the file

-If all goes well, all the tables that are contained in the sql file will now
be uploaded

-then edit config.php with details from ur db that u created !!!

Than just upload the nuke via ftp to your server and boom your done!
