Are you asking a question?

If so, "Error: Cannot create database" sounds like you don't have authority to create databases in MySQL - you need to check your user id and ensure it has CREATE DATABASE authority. This is done in MySQL, not FrontAccounting.

Error: Cannot create database 'frontacc'

I have tried a variety of things:

-use the database name I set up in SQL (without any tables)
-a number of different database names, all with this same result

Thanks for the help last time, but it looks like I need more. Reading the manual and searching the forums did not help.
