I had the same problem, i have my database created and the user in MySQL but i forgot to make the database link between the user and the database(don't know the right word).  I use webmin-mysql to do it, in a simple way.

Ask them for your mysql user name. It's usually the same name you signed up with or even your domain etc......

wwwtestcom@localhost

If you're on shared virtual server - root access may have been granted - since each user has its own 'root' access. You'll want to create a new user with less privileges.

Be sure your server supports both php and mysql. When you simply installed it on your local computer  using your local host it means that it uses your local database, and simply uploading it after the installation retains your local configuration and not your  server configuration where you upload the file. roll

Anyway, the problem is that the user you provided during the installation don't have access to the database.

that or its an invalid password ( i think that could be a cause)

Do you run the installation at home, and then upload it? Anyway, the problem is that the user you provided during the installation don't have access to the database.
