// ****** DATABASE NAME ******
// This is the name of the database where your vBulletin will be located.
// This must be created by your webhost.
$config['Database']['dbname'] = '********';

// ****** MASTER DATABASE SERVER NAME AND PORT ******
// This is the hostname or IP address and port of the database server.
// If you are unsure of what to put here, leave the default values.
$config['MasterServer']['servername'] = '*************';
$config['MasterServer']['port'] = ****;

// ****** MASTER DATABASE USERNAME & PASSWORD ******
// This is the username and password you use to access MySQL.
// These must be obtained through your webhost.

hey were do i get the info from and can i delete everything in the file and copy paste yours?

whats the master database?
 
mostly from your host :) goto the CPANEL of your host or look in the stuff they send you by mail if there is anything about how to make a database in phpmyadmin because what i think you didn't do is making a database... so try making a database thirst and then these name and login and password you need to make vb installed.
 
yup i made a database were will the servername be and database db name for it thats the only things i ain't done.
 
We really cannot put it any simpler than shown above, if you really cannot do it with the info provided then i would suggest you do 1 of 2 things

1, get help off someone who knows VB already as a joint admin on your site
or
2, give up now or it will end up being a car crash
