Installing MySQL

On Windows/Mac/Solaris

Download the server Here and follow the tutorial

On a Linux server over command line

Type the following commands into a SSH terminal:

• sudo apt-get install mysql-server
• service mysqld start

If that gives you an error such as "unknown command apt-get" you will need to try the following commands:

• yum install mysql
• yum install mysql-server
• yum install mysql-devel
• service mysqld start

If that also gives you an error I would suggest Googling it, or looking up a tutorial for your operating system on Youtube

If you only have FTP access

Contact your server host to see if they have MySQL support. If they do, set the SQL details in /plugins/OverPermissions/config to the information they give you. Otherwise you will have to use SQLite.

If you don't want to use MySQL

SQLite support is coming, but SQLite is less efficient than MySQL. If you wish to use SQLite simply change 'type' to 'sqlite' (NOT YET IMPLEMENTED)
