The error is that XOOPS can't connect to the database.
Did you (or your host) make a new database to be used by xoops?

Assuming you have the correct database details are you sure that your PHP has MySQL support running? Try creating a .php file with:

It should give you all the details of your PHP. MySQL and version is listed as well.

Did you install using the database name, database username and password that go with the new database that you created for XOOPS in your MySQL admin of your Cpanel?

Make sure you installed entering the correct database name.

Yes, but this means that XOOPS can't connect to the database you created, either the server can't be found, or the db username/password is incorrect. So check those in your mainfile.php.
