use the install tool to check your typo3-db settings or compare the 
typo3conf/localconf.php settings with your db environment:

$typo_db_username = 'xxx';
$typo_db_password = 'xxx';
$typo_db_host = 'localhost'; // host with db running
$typo_db = 'xxx';  // name of the db

you can manually try the login the db with a terminal session:

you at host:~$ mysql -u DB_USERNAME -p DB_NAME
If prompted for a passwd, enter your DB_PASSWORD
