This assumes that MySQL is installed.

Create a new database and database user for Grebe. If planning to use an existing database, then skip these steps.

Enter this command to get into the mysql command line interface: (it will ask for the root password)
mysql -uroot -p

At the `mysql>` prompt, enter the following commands, one at a time:

`create database grebe;`

`create user 'grebe'@'localhost' identified by 'set_your_password_here';`

`grant all privileges on grebe.* to 'grebe'@'localhost';`

`flush privileges;`

`quit;`

Create the Grebe database tables.

`mysql -ugrebe -pyourpassword -D grebe < grebe-users.sql`

`mysql -ugrebe -pyourpassword -D grebe < grebe-posts.sql`

`mysql -ugrebe -pyourpassword -D grebe < grebe-tags.sql`

`mysql -ugrebe -pyourpassword -D grebe < grebe-sessionids.sql`
