Normaly you have an option for mysql db in the controlpanel cpanel on your server.

In there you have to do some steps.

First you set up the db and give it a name (cubecart), normaly that name will be transfered to somthing like this "yourloginname_cubecart"

Second you create a user in the same way as abov. user ccdbuser will be transfered to "yourloginname_ccdbuser" and set a password for that user

then you connect the db "yourloginname_cubecart" to the user "yourloginname_ccdbuser"

the reason for using the prefix in front off all name is to avoid naming conflict between the customers on the same mysql database server.
