Can you confirm that you gave it the correct database username and password? How did you set up your 1.2 installation -- using the old manual install or the web installer? Did you create the MySQL user account manually or let the installer do it? Can you check that the user has sufficient permissions to make the database alterations?
I haven't had any trouble upgrading 1.2.x test wikis to 1.3 when using the web installer for both.

-the user and the password are correct -the 1.2.3 installation was done with the scipt install.php, not with the web installer -the mysql user account was created by the install script -the permissins for the user 'wikiuser' for 'wikidb' are SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, other permissions are missing
I set the permissions for 'wikiuser' manually to 'all privileges' (includes DROP, GRANT , LOCK, CREATE TEMPOARY ...) an now the upgrade installation is working fine. Mediawiki 1.3.1 is now running my old, but converted database. Does this create security problems ?
Maybe the install.php script created the wikiuser with to few permissions ?
