OK,
So I've made it to step 2, WOW, and this is the error i encountered:

Step 2) Connect to the database

Attempting to attach to database

Error description: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user 'dscla'@'localhost' (using password: YES) /form/includes/class_core.php on line 311

The database has failed to connect because you do not have permission to connect to the server. Please confirm the values entered in the 'includes/config.php' file.
 
In includes config.php you should enter the correct database name, user and password.
That will solve this issue.

Well im not sure what it is, ive been told it was different names, so i called yahoo small business so they could help, but of course they redirect me to someone 10,000 miles away with a thick accent and i cant understand a word they are saying, and then they asked for my b-day to "verify" my account, and they tell me its wrong, and im like i think i know my own birthday, so i just hang up on them, so im stuck and have no idea what to do. lol :-/
 
Go Log Into Your Webhost With Your Account.
Go To File Manager, Then Go To Includes, Then
Scroll Down, & Find Config.php Edit It,
['Database']Your email that you want the errors and things to forward to['technicalemail']

['Database']This is what you will get when you create a database IE webhost_6768787_vb['dbname']


['MasterServer']This is the user name you get for the server['username']


['MasterServer']Your password['password']
 
Well, im in progress atleast, but, encountered an error on the next step, lol, here is wat is says:

LMAO!

You Got KeyGen.php?

GYSN-KeyGen.php Something Like That.

Anyways Find KeyGen Then Go Yoursite.com/index/keygen.php

Something Like That. Hope That Helped.
 
make sure your username is...

ROOTNAME_USERNAME

and your database name is

ROOTNAME_DATABASE NAME
 
Step 2) Connect to the database

Attempting to attach to database

Error description: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user 'ROOTNAME_USERNAM'@'localhost' (using password: YES) /form/includes/class_core.php on line 311

The database has failed to connect because you do not have permission to connect to the server. Please confirm the values entered in the 'includes/config.php' file.
 
Are you sure the database server is localhost? Many times with free hosts there is a server name you have to enter in the config.php.
 
In config.php adjust the following!

Code:
	//	****** DATABASE NAME ******
	//	This is the name of the database where your vBulletin will be located.
	//	This must be created by your webhost.
$config['Database']['dbname'] = '[color=Red]yourdatabasename[/color][color=Red][/color]';

	//	****** TECHNICAL EMAIL ADDRESS ******
	//	If any database errors occur, they will be emailed to the address specified here.
	//	Leave this blank to not send any emails when there is a database error.
$config['Database']['technicalemail'] = '[color=Red][email protected]'[/color];

	//	****** MASTER DATABASE USERNAME & PASSWORD ******
	//	This is the username and password you use to access MySQL.
	//	These must be obtained through your webhost.
$config['MasterServer']['username'] = [color=Red]your_user_name[/color]';
$config['MasterServer']['password'] = '[color=Red]your_password[/color]';

The user specified in your_user_name should have permission to connect to the database!
