What control panel do you use?

You'll need to setup a database user and pass as well

msql? I don't think PSA supports msql. msql is really thing of the past, almost nobody supports it anymore. You need to migrate to mysql instead.

Goto Databases > Add a new database > Add a database user. After you have done that, you have created a MySQL database. Now you can configure your script to work with it. NO additional configuration is required on the database, besides making your tables.
