error during setup

SQLSTATE[28000] [1045] Access denied for user 'rss'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

This is a mysql error.

You might have the password wrong in config.ini or simply have not created the mysql DB

You can either use sqlite or create the database using the following commands to mySQL:

(For a DB called "selfoss" user "rss" password "secret")

create database selfoss;
create user 'rss'@'localhost' identified by 'secret';
grant all privileges on selfoss.* to 'rss'@'localhost';
flush privileges;

Note the last command - if you don't do that then you may not have access until mySQL is restarted.
