The drupal is not able to connect to your mysql server. You are entering incorrect mysql username and password... Recheck them.

Are you able to connect to your mysql database through ssh command shell or phpmyadmin using the same login/password?

So this is my progress so far:

1) downloaded & unzipped Drupal 5.x
2) uploaded the Drupal 5.x on my server manually via FTP
3) logged into my hosting account to "create a database" NOW using MySQL 5.0
4) logged into the database and tried to run the following:
5) Attempted to run the following:

GRANT SELECT , INSERT , UPDATE , DELETE , CREATE , DROP , INDEX , ALTER , CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES , LOCK TABLES ON ---myuserid--- . * TO '---myuserid---'@'localhost'
IDENTIFIED BY '---mypassword---'

and received the following error:

#1044 - Access denied for user 'albert'@'%' to database 'albert'

Can somebody please help?

I am experiencing the same error:

Using Drupal 5x, on Linux Server, MYSQL 4.1, ... problem is that the error says MYSQL 5.0, could that be the issue?
