I also get this error if I decide not to check create database
No database made.
Warning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user: 'SEG@localhost' (Using password: YES) in /home/elitesu/public_html/seg/pnadodb/drivers/adodb-mysql.inc.php on line 237

I was having the same problem and going nuts. It took my partner who is more PHP smarter than I to fix it. What we (he) had to do was -
Fixed:
Main pnuke site is: http://www.yourdomain.com/pnuke/html/index.php
From what I saw, was that in the pnuke setup, the database named was phoenix, when should have been username_phoenix.
additionally I had to add www.domainname.com as the host, not localhost ...I had to add a host of %.%.%.% meaning anyone, then things went through.
DANGER DOING THIS-
Now anyone, does not mean everyone, just those that have the database name, user name, password to access this on database.
For pnuke itself:
For PostNuke created on DB username_phoenix
user: admin pw *****
admin e-mail: me@domainname.com
