Summary
If you are using localhost as a database host it will give
Could not create a database connection. Please check your username and password.
if you do not replace the placeholder value of localhost with the word localhost or any loopback.
This is more of a UX issue than a bug IMHO but I think most would assume if the placeholder is there you don't have to fill it in. I suppose your use of "(optional)" on Port should indicate that all other fields are required, but this isn't super user friendly.
Expected Outcome
It should use localhost anyway, perhaps set the value of database_0_host's input to localhost instead of the placeholder, or set a default on the backend to try localhost if the field isn't set.
