[Xerte] walkthrough for installing toolkits

I actually managed to install it, but when I navigate to the site, all I see is the numeral 1 in 
upper left.

What I did was to take the advice to create a database in the cpanel.  

On the "MySQL Database Creation page" of setup, I
left first line blank, used my normal login for siteground and entered the new database name 
but left the prefix blank.

That seemed to work.  I created a user account on the next screen.  Then I hit Submit Query 
at the bottom and got a lot of text with a lot of access denied for user messages.  Still, at the 
bottom it says the Installation is complete and provides a link to my toolkits site.

But, as I say, the page is empty except for one digit.
