On your server, try to create a new (empty) MySQL database for b2evolution (For example, you can call it "b2evolution". The exact procedure to create a new database depends on your host/server setup. Alternatively, you can also use an existing database which b2evolution will share with existing applications.)

b2evolution will create about 25 tables in the database you select. Unless you changed the config, all these tables' names will be prefixed with evo_ . Unless you already have an application using the same prefix, this makes it safe to install b2evolution in a database shared with other applications. Your existing tables will not be affected in any way.

Only the contents of the <code>/blogs</code> directory need to be uploaded to your site. If you want b2evolution to handle the homepage of your site, upload the contents of the <code>/blogs</code> folder to your website root. Otherwise, it's best to upload the files to a subdirectory of your webserver. You can keep the <code>/blogs</code> subdirectory name, but you can also choose another.

Run the installation script on your server. Go to the following address in your web borwser <code>http://yoursite.com/yourfolder/install/index.php</code> (replace yoursite.com and yourfolder depending on where you installed). Then, simply follow the on screen instructions.<br /> <br /> The installer will ask you a few questions, create required database tables and configure b2evolution for you.
