I have an account in CPanel and need to populate a PHP script. The script is already written and I have uploaded the files into a directory of their own under Home. I now need to figure out how to get the PHP script to actually run in my web page. Do I need to insert a code into my page?
Most CPanel scripts have an install build in.
Since you have uploaded it yourself, look for an install.php file or setup.php
Running those through your browser should ask you to input your database name, server, username, password etc and it should setup the database itself.
If not you will have to manually look for the page which contains the database connection script and enter your details in there. Then manually import the sql database into phpmyadmin.
