Are you setting up a local server? Normally you would get MySQL database info (username, password, databasename) from your provider. If no hostname is provided localhost (default) should be the correct setting.

XAMPP installs and configures the MySQL server automatically.
Install it
as a service so it gets started automatically when your computer is started.
To create the database:
Start mysql:
Create the database:
Give permissions to a database user (substitute username and password with your own values):
Code: Select all
GRANT INSERT,SELECT,UPDATE,DELETE,CREATE,DROP ON cmsms.* TO username@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
Reload the MySQL server:
You can also use PHPMyAdmin to create the database.
