CHECK YOUR DATABASE NAME
Its seems that everything is ok username and password. but the database name is wrong, you use MYsql right so its important to get the whole thing right. try to create a new database and point it to that. you may have to open the installation.php file in drupals root and look at the Mysql info. its like on line 3 or something.

share some wicked stuff
update.php ??
is the installation.php the update.php or settings.php?
can you be more specific?
thanks for your help.
install.php
I checked the install.php and I don't see a line about the MySql dbs.
but, I have the correct MySql dbs name in settings.php
I did a mysqldump from the old database of 4.7.3 and imported into new.
then, I did a mysqlcheck and all was ok.
but, the errors are numerous at http://www.shreemaa.org
=-=
sites/default/settings.php holds the $db_url
according to your steps for upgrade to 5.x you've done it wrong.
you don't import the OLD DB into the new Drupal 5 DB you upgrade with the OLD DB in place by running update.php on the OLD DB.

did you turn off contributed modules first ?
are the modules you using in this case taxonomy_menu, updated to the 5.x version ?

modules
no, I didn't turn off contributed modules first.
where is that done?
the modules aren't updated to 5.x version.
I have all stock modules; nothing custom.
=-=
contributed modules are turned off in adminsiter -> modules
taxonomy_menu is not a core module, it is a contributed module.

taxonomy..module
this is what I see in administer -> modules about taxonomy.
it doesn't let me turn it off(greyed).
Taxonomy 5.2 Enables the categorization of content.
Required by: Forum (disabled), Image Gallery (disabled), Taxonomy Menu (enabled)
=-=
taxonomy_menu is a CONTRIBUTED module and needs to be turned off, along with any other contributed modules you have installed. Where it resides in your adminsiter -> modules page, I don't know , but it is there somewhere.
this includes image.module if its in use, since you have image_gallery which is an image.module addon.
you only leave enabled the modules that came with CORE.
