Question:
How do I create and manage database on 2020Media's Plesk servers.

Solution:
To create a new database on your hosting account:

1. Go to Domains > domain name > Databases and click Add New Database.
2. Enter a name for the database.

We recommend that you choose a name that starts with a Latin alphabet symbol and comprises only alphanumeric and underscore symbols (up to 64 symbols).
3. Select the database type that you are going to use: MySQL or Microsoft SQL Server. Click OK.
4. To set up database administrator's credentials, click Add New Database User.
5. Type a user name and a password that will be used for accessing the contents of the database.
6. Click OK.

To import an existing database:

1. Go to Domains > domain name > Databases and click Add New Database.
2. Enter a name for the database. We recommend that you choose a name that starts with a Latin alphabet symbol and comprises only alphanumeric and underscore symbols (up to 64 symbols).
3. Select the database type that you are going to use: MySQL or Microsoft SQL Server. Click OK.
4. To set up database administrator's credentials, click Add New Database User.
5. Type a user name and a password that will be used for accessing the contents of the database. Click OK.
6. Click WebAdmin in the Tools group. An interface to phpMyAdmin (or ASPEnterpriseManager) database management tool will open in a separate browser window.

If you have a MySQL database:

1. Click Query window in the left frame, click the Import files tab,
2. Select the text file that contains the data and click Go.
3. Click the Insert data from a text file link.

If you have a MS SQL database:

1. Click the name of your database in the left frame
2. Click Query (the magnifying glass button)
3. Copy the text of your script into the text area and click Run Query.
4. Or, if you have a complex database, we can restore from your backup. See "Import MSSQL database to a plesk server" in the Support section

To manage your databases and their contents, use the web based database management tool accessible from Plesk control panel (Domains > domain name > Databases > Database name > WebAdmin).
