Help installing wordpress

You are possibly using wordpress password and not database password

I would guess that the username and password are correct, but the mysql user does not have sufficient permissions to do anything with the database. Check those details first, perhaps contacting your host if you need to.

As loughcorrib suggests, the problem is connecting to the MySQL server. So or the username or password are incorrect. Check your hosting provider info to connect.

Are you installing it locally?
If so here’s a tutorial I did on installing WP on your local machine.
