Do you have cPanel installed on your host webserver?

No cPanel installed on my host webserver. How to solve my problem?

You will needs a system such as MySQL installed on the server, in most cases you will not be able to do this. Your host will need to install this for you.

That being said, alot of hosts do include PHP and MySQL as a bundle, contact them to see if this is available.

My host webserver is just a unix server for general use. It seems PHP code works on the server. Could u tell me how to find whether MySQL is installed on the unix server? Thanks.

Talk to the people who own the server.
