So, after some searching around these forums, I find the instructions for the manual installation.
I follow them, happily creating the tables and doing the initial load of data. I modify the config.php to reflect the values I have used.
I launch the application, and get a DB Connect Error

Now, I will admit I am MySQL neophyte, so I could be over looking something obvious, but at this point I believe there is something in the connection information I have incorrect. I am using:

Hostname: <host> or localhost
Username: activecollab
Database: mysql
