Please contact the MyBB Group for support.

Check your MySQL details.

It's not the details, you need to ask your host about this.

As matt said...

Yeah, listen to Matt. Check with your host

Urm maybe the database isn't even hosted on the local server?

Then you'd be getting an error saying the hostname was wrong. This means it's got the right database but it can't physically access it.
