during my phpbb installation it asks for database server hostname,server port (if not standard), database name, database username, database password. When i enter my details in to the fields, hostname - localhost, serverport - left blank as i assume its a standard port, db name - cyclone_db, db username - cyclone_admin and db password - ******* it is giving me the error "Could not connect to the database, see error message below.
Access denied for user 'cyclone_admin'@'int.starka.x10hosting.com' (using password: YES)" Am i not entering the details correctly? and what would be the correct values?

Did you create the database and the user in cPanel? Note that you must also add the user to the database and give it required privileges (normally you'd grant all in the dialog shown).

Easiest way to create a database and a user for it is using the database wizard.
