installing zeeauctions

hi i have been stuck installing zeeauctions and cannot seem to get the data base running on the system, i have set the db with the correct DBname user and password with the approp privlidges editied the myconnect.php file with the approp data
used localhost instead of the url and it throws up the below error, i am guessing its the passwords usernamess there are 2 myconfig files one in the root and one in the admin
