Creating a database with Mini SQL (mSQL) is very simple. Let's assume that you want to create a new database named contact_mgr. The command to create the new database is:
msqladmin create contact_mgrThis creates a directory named contact_mgr in your mSQL database directory. The default directory for database's is /usr/local/Hughes/msqldb, so the entire path to the new directory is /usr/local/Hughes/msqldb/contact_mgr.
You are now ready to add new tables to the contact_mgr
database.
