By Angelique Hoffman


Without a strong knowledge of the LAN, installing MYSQL with dedicated server hosting can be quite a hassle for some people. However, if you want to simplify the installation process and do everything correctly, this guide can give you a clue.

First of all, check the official MYSQL site and download the correct version. Even though you can check the settings on the hosting servers, it is important to leave the values of the MYSQL as default. At this point, you get to choose the bits system for your server hosting, a decision that should be based on your current processor.

If you do not know the specifications of your processor and the bits system you should choose, you can simply check the computer manual or ask for help from the processor manufacturer. Select the correct type of bits for your system and then download the MYSQL.

You will be redirected to a registration page. This is where you will have to fill in some basic information like your name, email address and other contact information. You will need to ensure that you have completed all the required fields correctly, since you will need this info when you log onto the website.

Once you are logged, you will be prompted to fill a second application. This step can be completed at a later date, when you have more available time and thus, you can head to the download section and get the MYSQL for the dedicated servers.

The download page will have several mirror download channels from different countries marked as flags. Choose the country that you live in and click on the HTTP tab and save the file. At this point you should see the download bar displayed on your monitor.This does not take up too much time but you have to wait for it to finish. When it is done, close the download window as well as the browser and return to the desktop.

You will find the MYSLQ icon on the desktop or the download folder. Double click on the icon to and run it. This will bring you the installation wizard that will help you complete the process fast. Use the custom settings other than the typical ones. Simply press next while you are installing the MYSQL on a dedicated server.

At this point you should be able to find some information regarding their server hosting enterprise, customer support and monitoring services.When you are done make sure you configure it to use it without a problem. Make sure to opt for multifunctional database and detailed configuration. Make sure you check the enable IP/TCP as well as the port number. Save the folder on the local drive c and come up with a password that will be used for the root user. Do not forget to uncheck the tab that says create an anonymous account before you are done with the installation.
