Trying to install Joomla on my server. Its asking me for a host name, mysql username and password. Any ideas what I enter for these?

You need mysql installed to install joomla, its asking you for your mysql username usually root the password to that account and hostname which is probably localhost

[Cravon]

if you have mySQL installed then you username and password are default to root if i remember correctly and you domain is localhost as default

 

if you don't have mySQL then download it from http://www.mysql.com and install it then run your joomla install.

Contact you hosting provider to see if you have an SQL DB available.
