Access denied for user: 'apache@localhost' (Using password: NO)

Okay, I get this error after my 3rd attempt to install vbDrupal.
I follow all the instructions, the result is the same:

Access denied for user: 'apache@localhost' (Using password: NO)

Okay, how can I fix that?

Access denied for user: 'user@localhost' (Using password: NO)
The forum and drupal paths in sites/default/config.php may be entered wrong, update it.

my $vb_dir = 'http://www.myurl.com/forum3';
$drupal_dir = 'http://www.myurl.com/forum3/blogs';

Is that correct?

Looks like it is having trouble connecting to your database.

Check your database settings in the config.php file (its in the sites/default folder).

Make sure these match your database information.

config.php or settings.php?

and which field should I exactly edit there, I am not that familiar with such things.

Thanks for your response.

$vb_dir = 'http://www.myurl.com/forum3';
$drupal_dir = 'http://www.myurl.com/forum3/blogs';

That should be the path on the webserver, not the url.

e.g.
/path/to/website/forum
or
c:\path\to\website

elmuerte is correct. Try changing your paths and you should be ok.
