"Error establishing a database connection"
After I deleted the installer, downloaded MySQL again, and re-did the installation, it finally installed.
Then I ran the setup program, and it asked me for:
Database Name
User Name
Password
Database Host
Table prefix
I put in my MySQL username and password, and left the rest at their defaults (wordpress, localhost, and wp_).
It gave me an error message saying "Error establishing a database connection".
What did I do wrong? What should the Database name, Database host, and Table Prefix be?
