 * an ‘Error establishing a database connection’ message says that the information
   you put in your wp-config.php file is not correct. You need to verify the database
   name, user and password.

 * The default values for the database user in XAMPP are `root` and `<empty, don't
   enter any value>`
 * So your connection info would be:
 * Database Name: wordpress
    User Name: root Password: do not enter anything Host
   Name: localhost
