I'm setting up my towny config and I know I have a mysql database. It's the first time I've used it though. I know the hostname and port and username, but where it says dbname and table_prefix, is that something I have to set up myself or will the plugin do it automatically? I don't know if this is a stupid question but regardless I don't know the answer lol.

You have to have the database already, but the prefix can be anything. It's so if you use a database that already exists it won't overwrite anything there (so if it made a users table and there was already one from a different plugin for example, if you set a prefix of towny_ it'd make the towny_users table)

I don't think it can make a database though, unless you log in as the root user..
