[TYPO3-linux] Can't access backend admin or frontend website

[Matt Stanley]

OK... On the Administratino Login on QuickStart page I am typing in the 
username and password that are stored in the $typo_db_username and 
$typo_db_password fields of typo3conf.php but it STILL will not let me in... 
Using the install tool I have successfully created a database for TYPO3 
(cms_staff.db). Also, the MySQL user "webuser" has been created and given 
all permissions to modify the cms_staff db. I succesfully logged into MySQL 
via a SSH console on the box. Despite all these steps I still get the 
following error when trying to log into TYPO3:

Your login attempt did not succeed. Make sure to spell your username and 
password correctly, including upper/lowercase characters.

What am I missing here guys?
