Mike,

It appears you are thinking a DB is a physical thing like a static webpage.  It is physical in that it resides on your file system, however it is not like a static webpage.

Take a look at these tutorials http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/tutorial.html.  They should help you understand the what and how of databases, specifically MySql.

Here is some PHP info on how to work with MySql databases  http://www.php.net/manual/en/set.mysqlinfo.php.

I would recommend understanding the basics before trying to install Joomla on your local LAMP install.

I was thinking..... Do you need to create a new database for every new website? If so I think I need to chown the database or maybe add it to a group.:-)~MIKE~(-:

why is it asking for database info?! oh bother.well I tried to create a database but this is the error it gives:
An error occurred while trying to create the database onlineworkfinder.us.



The user may not have enough privileges to create a database. The required database may need to be created separately before you can install Joomla!.




So please, what do I need to do. Should I chown something? If so, what?:-)~MIKE~(-:
