George, it sounds as if you are have a naming problem with your sql database.
When you create the database, what did you call it ?
did you then create a user and then added that user to the database.

If you have got this far then remember that your cpanel will add a pre-fix to the database name that you created i.e.

called it blingbong,
cpanel name pre-fix xxxx_blingbong

That is the name of the database you should enter in FMP xxxx.blingbong

and the same occurs with the username..... xxxx_username

have fun and get back to us if you still have problems.......
