Yeah, i already know how to create a Database, but i don´t know, what i know have to type in as Username, Password and Host in MySQL-Section.

Sorry for my english ?

LPCHax you can also create a user with access to the database. As a hostname you'd normally use "localhost"

I know typed in Admin as MySQL Username and no password, but then this errors comes: "Something went wrong: SQLSTATE[HY000] [1044] Access denied for user ''@'localhost' to database 'flarum'"

PS.: So actually my Forum Setup looks like: http://imgur.com/a/lSprw

Sorry that i´m not so good in MySQL.

LPCHax For test purpose, there is a default account named "root" with no password, that you could use.

But, it's for your tests. You should take a look in the Mysql Doc on how to create an account. Usually, it's a good habit to understand what you're doing.

With PHPMyAdmin the process is quite simple.

LPCHax There are three things you need to do to set up a database.

Create the database.
Create the user.
Give the user permissions to access the database.

My guess is that you simply forgot to do the last part. You can give the user global permissions, so they can perform tasks on any one of your databases, but it's recommended to create a new user for every database (this matters more on live servers than on your local).
