MySql installation step with EasyPHP

I'm trying to install CMS using EasyPHP.
On step 3, the installation procedure ask me to:

  1. create database cms; (use whatever name you want here but make sure to remember it, you'll need to enter it on this page)
  2. grant all privileges on cms.* to cms_user@localhost identified by 'cms_pass';

I made 1. by creating a database and naming it cms with the MySql command in system-tray EasyPHP menu. But I was not able to undestand what I have to do in 2.

Attempting to continue, I obtain the following message:

Could not connect to database. Verify that username and password are correct, and that the user has access to the given database.

Obviously I forgotten to do something. My question is: what? And: creating the database as I have made, is it right? Or I have to choose a particular directory (no idea about how to do this)?

Thanks for your patience. I'm a newbie.

Solved. It suffices to execute the following query: 
GRANT ALL ON cms.* to cms_user@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'password'
in PhpMyAdmin.
