you need to enter the mysql admin with a username and password
for example
./mysql -u root -p
should ask you for the password for root
obviously you don't want to use root as your main database password, but your host should have provided you with a username.
you will also need to 'grant' your user whatever privileges they will need to add/edit/delete content from the database itself.

Can someone help me please? How can i fix this problem in order to create a new DATABASE?
Thank you very much.
