### Create a database
Create an empty database and note the access details (hostname, username, password, database name).
Generate a strong password, then enter mysql with:
mysql
Then use the following script using the password you just generated:
CREATE DATABASE friendicadb;
CREATE USER 'friendica'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '<<your mysql password here>>';
GRANT ALL ON friendicadb.* TO 'friendica'@'localhost' WITH GRANT OPTION;
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
EXIT;
Friendica needs the permission to create and delete fields and tables in its own database.
