I uploaded Joomla via FTP to server (because I want my own version of it) and now I can't install it because it always says: "Username and password wrong" in MySQL setup. I have put everything like they should be but it doesn't work.

I think the Host Address is wrong. Do I have to put it in name.x10hosting.com or localhost or what ?
I tested those both, but they didn't work.

Hmm... it doesn't seem to work for me.
Example: my cpanel username is juho and password xxxxxx.
I create a new database : juho_joomla
I create a new user to database: juho_juho and password xxxxx.

Still got the problem. Any other suggestions ?
Oh, And I put the host address name.x10hosting.com < is that right ?

You need to rename the server database name to mysql.x10hosting.com instead of 'localhost'
