53 ========================
54
55 To initialise and use the MySQL database backend, roundup's configuration
56 file (``config.py`` in the tracker's home directory) should have the following
57 entries (substituting real values of course)::
58
59 MYSQL_DBHOST = 'localhost'
60 MYSQL_DBUSER = 'rounduptest'
61 MYSQL_DBPASSWORD = 'rounduptest'
62 MYSQL_DBNAME = 'rounduptest'
63 MYSQL_DATABASE = ( MYSQL_DBHOST, MYSQL_DBUSER, MYSQL_DBPASSWORD,
64 MYSQL_DBNAME )
65
66 Fill in the first four entries with values for your local MySQL installation
67 before running "roundup-admin initialise". Use the commands in the
68 `Running the MySQL tests`_ to set up a database if you have privilege, or
69 ask your local administrator if not.
