I've installed FrontAccounting 4 times (i'm having issues of my own). I looks like the file is generated when you enter the data regarding the database information during the installation. Here is an example of the file:
===============================================================
<?php
/*Connection Information for the database
$def_coy - the default company that is pre-selected on login
'host' - the computer ip address or name where the database is. The default is 'localhost' assuming that the web server is also the sql server.
'dbuser' - the user name under which the company database should be accessed.
NB it is not secure to use root as the dbuser with no password - a user with appropriate privileges must be set up.
'dbpassword' - the password required for the dbuser to authorise the above database user.
'dbname' - the name of the database as defined in the RDMS being used. Typically RDMS allow many databases to be maintained under the same server.
'tbpref' - prefix on table names, or '' if not used. Always use non-empty prefixes if multiply company use the same database.
*/
$def_coy = 0;
$tb_pref_counter = 1;
$db_connections = array (
0 =>
array (
'name' => 'Company Name',
'host' => 'localhost',
'dbuser' => 'mysql user acct',
'dbpassword' => 'password',
'dbname' => 'mysql db name',
'tbpref' => '0_',
),
);
?>
