When you create your MySQL database, first you create a database by giving it a name. Then you create a user by entering a username and password. For best results keep your database name, database username, and database password at no fewer than 6 and no more than 7 letters or numbers. Then you must be sure to add the user to the database. In your script, your database name and your database username must be prefaced by your hosting account username_. Your password, however, stands alone. For example: If your hosting account username is "fastweb1", your database name is "testdb", your database username is "dbuser", and your database password is "passwd", here is how you need to put them in your script: database server should be : localhost
