Well if the database is on the same server, you left the hostname to localhost, and set the databasename, the database-user and database-pass correct, all should work.
If the datbase was on a different server, it could be a permission thing, but i never saw a host that is blocking connections to mysql from localhost.

You did set the databasename, did you?
