 * Hello,
 * Thank you for your reply. I’ve been there many times but the database in not 
   visible. If I try to make one with the same name, it says the database already
   exists.

 * Thank you for your answer. When I try to make a database in MySQL Database with
   the same name as before, it says the database already exists…this might be an
   error of the cPanel because I don’t see the database…or maybe I don’t have full
   rights.

 * or what you are telling me here is to install a new database and change in the
   wp-config.php the new database name, table_prefix, SQL user and password?

 * okay, excuse me.
 * > No, you will likely just get an error message saying it already exists.
 * I’m trying to install it again and indeed it says it already exists. But also
   it says “Select the checkbox to overwrite all files and continue”….so what comes
   in my mind, can’t I just check this box, install the database and after that 
   copy the old files into ftp?
 * thank you.
