Yep, the error is telling you that you either have incorrect MySql details or you don't have a database. Find out those details from your host, we cannot get them for you.

It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.

That error message comes from cpg1.5.x, which currently goes unsupported (as in the words "no support at all"), because it's beta software. If you need support, use a supported, stable version (currently cpg1.4.25). Then do exactly as suggested per board rules. Marking thread accordingly, moving and locking.
It's always the same thing when a beta gets available: people don't care about the "unsupported" tag and ask for support. That's just rude.
