To connect to a MySQL database, you typically need the following connection settings:
1. Hostname
2. Database name
3. Database username
4. Database password
5. Port Number
If connecting from a script on the server, the hostname is “localhost”.
If connecting remotely, the hostname is your domain name.
Database name: cpuser_db,Database username: cpuser_dbuser,Database password
Port Number: 3306
For PHP:
$dbh=mysql_connect ("localhost", "cpuser_dbuser", "password") or die ('I cannot connect to the database because: ' . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db ("cpuser_db");
Note: For example, if your cPanel username is “Asia787” and you create a database called “Pakistan”, your database name will be Asia787_Pakistan.
