Removing a MySQL database

Since some of our hosting accounts have MySQL database creation limits, it is recommended to remove any unnecessary MySQL databases so that you are able to create more databases when necessary.

Here are the steps:

  1. To access the MySQL Account Maintenance Menu, click on the words MySQL Databases on the main screen of your cPanel interface.
  2. Click on delete next to the name of the database you wish to delete.


Troubleshooting: Before deleting a database due to problems with that database, try using repair on the database to repair any problems with it.
