[Xerte] Problems installing Xerte

I am installing Xerte on the following server:

Ubunutu 8.10
PHP 5.2.10
MySQL 5

After entering the username and password of the MySQL user I created for Xerte the installation then fails as it tries to enter information in to the database. 

An example of the error is:

The sitedetails site ID query insert into DATABASE_PREFIXsitedetails(site_id) VALUES ( "1") has failed due to Access denied for user 'www-data'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

This looks to me as if it is trying to write to the MySQL database as the user www-data (which is the Apache user), and not as the user I specified in the previous step.
