Using bBlog on your own server.

The installation program asks for your MySQL database name and password. I couldn't get the to work by myself, because I run my own so no admin just handed me the info. If you're in the same boat, here's all you need to do:

/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql -p

Enter password: mypassword

mysql> CREATE database blog;
mysql> GRANT SELECT,INSERT,UPDATE,DELETE,CREATE,DROP,ALTER,INDEX
    -> ON blog.*
    -> TO blog@localhost
    -> IDENTIFIED BY 'myblogpassword';

Obviously, change the stuff in bold. Then in bBlog's setup use the user and database name of 'blog' with the password set above.
