The error message is telling you what is wrong: "The database details specified in config.php are not correct"

I'm guessing that your MySQL username is not actually "username". smile

You probably turned debugging turned on in the admin's "Configure variables" page. Do not do this unless (as it says next to the setting) you are a developer and know what you're doing. It should have defaulted to being off.

Basically you've run into some harmless bugs on the site settings screen (that have been fixed since 1.0.8.1)
