i need help please

i am confuse with hear


Editing the config.php file is one of the few times in vBulletin where you will need to edit raw PHP code. The file is heavily commented in order to help you fill in the necessary information.

Of the settings in this file, only a few need to be edited in order to create a working vBulletin configuration file. These settings are:


$config['Database']['dbname']This value should be altered to state the name of the database that will contain your vBulletin installation on the database server.$config['Database']['technicalemail']An email address should be entered here. All database error messages will be forwarded to the email address provided.$config['MasterServer']['servername']This sets the address of your database server. On most installations the database server is located on the same computer as the web server, in which case the address should be set to 'localhost', otherwise use the address of the database server as supplied by your web host.$config['MasterServer']['username']This variable contains the username provided to you by your host for connecting to your database server.$config['MasterServer']['password']The password that accompanies the database username should be entered here.

First and foremost, welcome to the vBulletin family.
As this is the pre-sales forums, we do not offer any form of technical support in here. For your above mentioned issue, it is best to post in the installation section: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=136 .

Lastly, we cannot tell you the information you will need to place in the configuration file. Because all servers are configured differently by their administrator, you will need to check with your hosting provider to see about obtaining the correct information for your account.

Typically, information needs to be populated like so:

$config['MasterServer']['username'] = 'YOURUSERNAMEHERE';
$config['MasterServer']['password'] = 'YOURPASSWORDHERE';
// etc.

It should make more sense when you open up your config.php / config.php.new file, as instructed in the documentations, in a text editor.
