During your first attempt of installing Liferay with eclipse, if you were unable to set your database configuration as MYSQL and it still shows the default database.Then there is a quick solution to this problem.
Steps that should be followed :
1. Delete the already installed server in eclipse.
2. Extract the liferay-portal-tomcat-6.2-ce-ga2 zip file on the same location where it was extracted on previous attempt.
3. Configure the server with Liferay v6.2 CE Server (Tomcat 7) at localhost and start the server.
4. When the server will start hit the localhost:8080.
5. A page will be displayed for the database configuration and user configuration.
6. Keep your MYSQL running.
7. Make a database in MYSQL for eg,LiferayTest.
8. Provide the database name , username and password.
Once you are done with these steps, Liferay will use the database mentioned.
