A bit more explanation is in order me thinks.
Like:
- Do you host the site yourself
- Is it hosted on windows or linux
- If hosted by a provider did they provide you with a mysql database or the means to create one yourself
Looks like you are using cPanel, so make sure you actually added the user to the database after creating the user and the database.
