PrintShop Web Installation Guide | 13
During the installation of the MySQL database software a user is created with the name root,
with no password. To modify the password you can use an application like MySQL Administrator
afterwards. The MySQL Administrator is part of the MySQL GUI Tools suite which you can
download for free from the MySQL website: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/gui-tools/
Note that the incDBLink.php file (located in the Functions folder of the PSW Website folder) should
be changed accordingly.

change. Click Next to proceed.
Database exists
When PrintShop Web find a database wich the name psw, the Database Exists page may appear:
The Database Exists page
This page allows you to use the existing database or to overwrite it. If an older version of the
system is found you will be able to update the database keeping the existing orders, templates, etc.
Once the installation procedure is finished you should check that the companies, templates and
other information in the system has default values set for items like the pricing settings.
Important: When upgrading PrintShop Web we strongly advise to read the Important update
notes chapter and create backups of your current PrintShop Web installation. You can use the
MySQL Administrator tool described before to create a backup of your psw database.
