the way i got my solution is i downloaded php my admin, on IIS set the phpMyAdmin as your home directory, then find the database you want to use, suppose its called xoops, then give yourself a username and password for the database, eg username : morlo123 and password : morlo123 (doesnt matter). then go through the XOOPS installation and for the database host type localhost then for the database enter XOOPS and then the username and password for it. worked for me.

Im having a similar problem. I have installed MySQL on my winXP machine running IIS. Went through the installation of xoops. Get to the stage of checking the database and I get:
could not connect to the database.
It was running ok yesterday. checked all configurations, authentications, and database and all is ok. MySQL is running with no errors.
Can anyone help me? Im stuck
