+CREATE THE MySQL DATABASE
+--------------------------
+
+This step is only necessary if you don't already have a database set up (e.g.,
+by your host). In the following examples, 'username' is an example MySQL user
+which has the CREATE and GRANT privileges. Use the appropriate user name for
+your system.
+
+First, you must create a new database for your Drupal site (here, 'databasename'
+is the name of the new database):
+
+  mysqladmin -u username -p create databasename
+
+MySQL will prompt for the 'username' database password and then create the
+initial database files. Next you must log in and set the access database rights:
+
+  mysql -u username -p
+
+Again, you will be asked for the 'username' database password. At the MySQL
+prompt, enter following command:
+
+  GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP, INDEX, ALTER
+  ON databasename.*
+  TO 'username'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
+
+where
+
+ 'databasename' is the name of your database
+ 'username@localhost' is the username of your MySQL account
+ 'password' is the password required for that username
+
+Note: Unless your database user has all of the privileges listed above, you will
+not be able to run Drupal.
+
+If successful, MySQL will reply with:
+
+  Query OK, 0 rows affected
+
+If the InnoDB storage engine is available, it will be used for all database
+tables. InnoDB provides features over MyISAM such as transaction support,
+row-level locks, and consistent non-locking reads.

+CREATE THE PostgreSQL DATABASE
+------------------------------
+
+Note that the database must be created with UTF-8 (Unicode) encoding.
+
+1. CREATE DATABASE USER
+
+   This step is only necessary if you don't already have a user set up (e.g., by
+   your host), or want to create a new user for use with Drupal only. The
+   following command creates a new user named 'username' and asks for a password
+   for that user:
+
+     createuser --pwprompt --encrypted --no-createrole --no-createdb username
+
+   If there are no errors, then the command was successful.
+
+2. CREATE DRUPAL DATABASE
+
+   This step is only necessary if you don't already have a database set up
+   (e.g., by your host) or want to create a new database for use with Drupal
+   only. The following command creates a new database named 'databasename',
+   which is owned by the previously created 'username':
+
+     createdb --encoding=UTF8 --owner=username databasename
+
+   If there are no errors, then the command was successful.
+
+3. CREATE SCHEMA OR SCHEMAS (Optional advanced step)
+
+   Drupal will run across different schemas within your database if you so wish.
+   By default, Drupal runs inside the 'public' schema but you can use $db_prefix
+   inside settings.php to define a schema for Drupal to run inside of, or
+   specify tables that are shared inside of a separate schema. Drupal will not
+   create schemas for you. In fact, the user that Drupal runs as should not be
+   allowed to do this. You'll need to execute the SQL below as a superuser,
+   replace 'username' with the username that Drupal uses to connect to
+   PostgreSQL, and replace 'schema_name' with a schema name you wish to use,
+   such as 'shared':
+
+     CREATE SCHEMA schema_name AUTHORIZATION username;
+
+   Do this for as many schemas as you need. See default.settings.php for
+   instructions on how to set which tables use which schemas.

+SQLITE REQUIREMENTS
+-------------------
+
+To use SQLite with your Drupal installation, the following requirements must be
+met: Server has PHP 5.3.2 or later with PDO, and the PDO SQLite driver must be
+enabled.
+
+SQLITE DATABASE CREATION
+------------------------
+
+The Drupal installer will create the SQLite database for you. The only
+requirement is that the installer must have write permissions to the directory
+where the database file resides. This directory (not just the database file) also
+has to remain writeable by the web server going forward for SQLite to continue to
+be able to operate.
+
+On the "Database configuration" form in the "Database file" field, you must
+supply the exact path to where you wish your database file to reside. It is
+strongly suggested that you choose a path that is outside of the webroot, yet
+ensure that the directory is writeable by the web server.
+
+If you must place your database file in your webroot, you could try using the
+following in your "Database file" field:
+
+  sites/default/files/.ht.sqlite
+
+Note: The .ht in the name will tell Apache to prevent the database from being
+downloaded. Please check that the file is, indeed, protected by your webserver.
+If not, please consult the documentation of your webserver on how to protect a
+file from downloading.
