New Wordpress = Error establishing a database connection ?

yabado

Regular Pleskian
I just tested the WP creation feature of PP12 and I get the following error when I attempt to view the newly created CMS...

"Error establishing a database connection"

If I navigate to the database page and click webadmin, I can connect and see the WP database created. Everything works in phpMyAdmin.

Going to ../wordpress/wp_login.php returns the error.

What am I missing here?
 
Check that "old-passwords" option is missing in /etc/my.cnf
