This tutorial will take you step-by-step on getting Ensim to do everything needed for you to install WordPress.
Login to your website cpanel.
You should see many icons, but you want just the 'MySql databases' one:

Click it.
Now in this image, I have taken out my website address and replaced it with example.com. On your site, it will have your web address.
In Box 1, enter the name of the database. 'wp' would be just fine. For your wp-config.php, this is your DB_NAME.
Look at Box 2. It will already have a name in there - that is your DB_USER. Write this info down.

Excellent !
If you already have some databases and functioning programs, you won't need this next bit. (You probably haven't needed any of it....). If you have not set up a database on your site before, read on ....
So far you have 2 of the four pieces of information for your wp-config.php file.
Your host should have given you a mySQL password, and they should be able to tell you if you connect to 'localhost'. I'll assume that it's a Sunday morning though and they are not around ... and you have no clue as to the password you need.

Go back to the first screen of your Ensim control panel. On the right are a series on boxes:
The name at the top you should have already noted.
By now, you should have named the database (DB_NAME), got your user name (DB_USER) and you just sorted out your password (DB_PASSWORD). You should be good to go, and you can leave 'localhost' as the last piece of this particular jigsaw.
But just in case you get a connection error and you have checked that you haven't made any typos in the above, here's how to check if you really are on 'localhost'.

Run installation
Upload all the WordPress files, including the file above, to the directory where you want it to be.It doesn't have to be called anything in particular - your choice.
Let's say I uploaded the files to a directory called 'blog' - I would then use my browser to go to
www.example.com/blog/wp-admin/install.php
and then you'll see this screen:
