Cannot connect to MySQL hosts

    I’ve been working on this for two weeks now. Microsoft won’t allow phone support unless I sell my kidneys for both their programs I’ve downloaded to assist in web development (Visual Web Developer 2010 Express and WebMatrix) After opening either program I try to install the WordPress Application and I get to the “Enter application information:” screen and enter the correct name’s and password’s to the never ending error message of:

    ———————————————————-
    The source is invalid.
    Cannot connect to the database”.
    Cannot connect to the database”.
    Unable to connect to any of the specified MySQL hosts
    ———————————————————-

    I am the administrator and I run the program as administrator on the pc. I have tried clean uninstall/reinstall. Tried opening the port 3306 for MySQL server. Nothing has worked. I really don’t want to take this thing to a shop and would truly appreciate any help at all. Or at least a better forum to go to. I’ve tried plenty. Thank you very much.

    I went to the MySQL forums and found out the connection to my host and database works. But the problem lies within the WordPress install. Does anyone at all know any steps I need for troubleshooting this?? I’ve tried about everything I’d really appreciate it.
