Need a bit of help with a database question...
I'm ready to create my mysql database for my 3.6 vBull install...my website is based on the PHP 5 version and I have a chioce on the mysql versions of 4.1 or 5...what would be recomended for my install into an already existing website? And the "upload" folder goes in the root directory and renamed to "forum"? :rolleyes:

As you can see in this page:
http://www.vbulletin.com/features.php

Either version (MySql 4.1 or 5.0) is fine with you. I'd recommend you the latest version.

You can either:
1) put all the CONTENTS of the "upload" directory to your account root, or
2) put the "upload" directory to your account root, and rename it to whatever you want. "forum" is ok.

You might want to, first, read the installation guide and documentation, here: http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/

Oh.. please don't call it vBull, it sounds rude. Call it vBulletin ;)
