When in doubt always try to connect manually using the credentials
you plan to use from bacula-dir in order to rule out incorrect database
or network setup.

For example, from the bacula-dir server you can try something like this:
 mysql -h <dbhost> -u <dbuser> -p <dbname>

The command above should prompt you for a password and if you are
able to connect then there is nothing wrong with the mysql setup.
Otherwise you need to setup your mysql database properly first.
