    You can rename these files before you upload them to your web server or rename them after they are uploaded, just delete the default from the end

    The files mentioned have nothing to do with that error message. The error states that your database connection details are incorrect. Please read the error and make corrections to your database settings during the installation.

    Either something weird is going on with your server, or your database settings are being incorrectly entered when installing Pligg (the more likely scenario). Double check your /libs/dbconnect.php file and see if it is entering the database details correctly after attempting to install.
