Thank you for contacting Yahoo! Small Business Support.
I understand you are having trouble getting mysql host information and
apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you.
If you are using a PHP script that connects to a MySQL database, this
may require a database hostname, a database name, and a database
username and password.
You need to install phpmyadmin if you want to create database and
tables.Please go to below link for more information regarding
installation of phpmyadmin tool.

NOTE: Yahoo! Web Hosting does not support third party scripts.
Hostname
========
The hostname is always "mysql". Many scripts will set the hostname to
"localhost" by default. Please note that this will not work. You must
change the hostname to "mysql".
Database Username and Password
==============================
When you initially set up a MySQL account, you will create a database
username and password. To create a MySQL account, login to your Yahoo!
Web Hosting account. Under the "Create & Update" tab., choose MySQL
Database then create Username and Password Now.
Database Name
=============
When you initially set up a MySQL account, a database named "mysql" is
created. Please do not use the database name "mysql" as this database is
used to administrate your MySQL database environment.
NOTE: Do not delete the database named "mysql", the user "yroot", or
your own database username, as this will permanently disable your
database access.
To add a new database:
1. Log into the phpMyAdmin tool. If the directory name where you
installed phpMyAdmin is "db", you would go to:
http://www.your-domain.com/db.
You will be prompted for your database username and password.
2. Choose a new database name. Make sure this name has not already been
used.
3. In the phpMyAdmin tool, enter the database name of your choice in the
"Create New Database" field. The name you enter here is the database
name. Click the "Create" button to create the database.
Please do not hesitate to reply if you need further assistance.
