hello there,
 
i have a website...and the host i'm dealing with offer only one place
for MySQL database to be used...i've already used it for my forum...but
then i was shocked cause i really was hoping to build my photo gallery
with coppermine...which needs an MySQL too...
 
however...they are offering some sort of another database which is
called PgSQL...can i use it instead of MySQL..?
 
thanx alot

No you can not use PgSQL  BUT you can share the same MySQL db to have tables of your forums and Coppermine

thank you....but how can i do this...? i mean once i choose the same database...i get this warning thing that any overwriting will cause the other data do be deleted...

make sure you tell it to use different table prefix than the forum tables.  If the forum tables have the prefix 'forum_', use a prefix like 'cpg_' for coppermine.  Then it will not overwrite the other tables.
