How to Create a Database and Access phpMyAdmin ​

You can create your own MySQL databases for your game server, for example for plugins, mods or web interfaces. Through phpMyAdmin you can then conveniently manage your database in the browser.

Create a database ​

1. Open dashboard
   Open the dashboard of your server.

2. Open databases
   In the left sidebar, click on Databases.

3. Create new database
   Click the plus icon in the top right to create a new database.

4. Set a name
   Enter a name for your database (e.g. test) and click Create Database.

   Note

   In the Connections From field you can optionally restrict which IPs are allowed to connect to the database. Leave the field empty or set to % to allow connections from anywhere.

Show connection details ​

Click the eye icon next to your database to view all connection details:

• Database Host (e.g. db1.cgn1.emeraldhost.de)
• Database Port (default: 3306)
• Database Username
• Database Password
• Database Name
• JDBC Connection String

Use the Generate New Password button to create a new password for the database at any time.

Open phpMyAdmin ​

   Click the external icon (arrow pointing outward) next to your database. You will be redirected to the phpMyAdmin login page.

2. Enter credentials
   Enter the Database Username and Database Password and click Log in. You can find the credentials via the eye icon next to your database.
