Ok I got to Database Configuration before I got a error here is what I see:
Error
There seems to be one or more errors with the database configuration information that you supplied:

Could not connect to the database server at 'localhost' with the supplied username and password. Are you sure the hostname and user details are correct?
Once the above are corrected, continue with the installation.

Could someone help me fill this out? Thanks!!!



What are you using as the database name? You have 8 Astrix's (not sure if that is right spelling Toungue), next to the "Database Name" but the name in your cPanel data is different and more than 8 characters. If so, then that is the issue. (without the * of course Toungue) If not, then either your hostname, database name or the database login is wrong. If you believe them to be right, then please consult your host.
