MyBB Database Error

[techguycasey61]

I had MyBB installed, but ran into trouble when I tried to upgrade to the latest version and had to reinstall MyBB, but I uploaded all the files, created a new database and ran the installer, but when I got to the Database Configuration section and imputed the information for the database I created, but when I click next I get this error:

Error

There seems to be one or more errors with the database configuration information that you supplied:

• Could not connect to the database server at 'localhost' with the supplied username and password. Are you sure the hostname and user details are correct?

Once the above are corrected, continue with the installation.

The only problem is that the username and password I provided is correct.
