Trouble installing drupal-7.0-rc2?

Hello
Has aybody else had trouble installing the new Drupal 7; the rc2 version?  I get the error message given below and have tried everything including everything that the below error messsge tells you to check for.  I have UwAmp server installed on my laptop.  I have previously successfully installed versions 7.0-alpha7 and 7.0-beta2.0.  This time something's up and I'm not sure what, I have followed all of the same steps etc.  What should I do?

"In order for Drupal to work, and to continue with the installation process, you must resolve all issues reported below. For more help with configuring your database server, see the installation handbook. If you are unsure what any of this means you should probably contact your hosting provider.

Failed to connect to your database server. The server reports the following message: SQLSTATE[28000] [1045] Access denied for user 'jenny'@'localhost' (using password: YES).

  • Is the database server running?
  • Does the database exist, and have you entered the correct database name?
  • Have you entered the correct username and password?
  • Have you entered the correct database hostname?"

I find Drupal a bit frustrating in this respect.  I am new to Drupal.  I try to learn it in my spare time.  Frequently; when I go to pick up where I left off again, I am told I must install the new version to protect the security of my server.  This takes time because I have to remember how to do that, and usually there will be a problem.  Then that will stunt my progress of managing my site via the CMS Admin interface.  Anyone elses thoughts on that?

Thanks for your response.  No I don't see anything to do with POD.  Where do I have to put <?php

Same error with Version 7.0 too

Aah this is the same for the new Drupal 7.0 by the way.  I thought download version 7, opportunity to get around the problem I was having installing versoin 7.0rc2.  For some reason it's not working anymore and I don't know why.  Something to do with the php setup of my machine I gather......

Hi I managed to solve this

Hi

Just in case anybody else comes up against the same annoying error
