You'll need to grant that user appropriate permissions on the database, so that it can create and alter tables, insert and update rows, run selects, etc.

Should these users be setup inside of mysql? The username for the site 'mysite' is mysitec and each user that I define under mysql has the suffix mysitec_
so I ran setup with
mysitec_wikiuser and got the messages:

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Do you manage the server yourself or is it hosted by a third party? If it's the latter, you will not have root access and must set up users yourself. If the former, however, then you set the mySQL root password during configuration.
If you provide more details about what you're running and how you're running it, we might be able to help further.
