 The error message "Error establishing a database connection" is extremely
 misleading, as it's at least also returned when the _connection_ to the
 database is working just fine but WordPress doesn't find the correct
 schema. I'm attaching a patch with a more descriptive error message, so
 the maybe others will avoid having to trace down non-existent connections
 problem when the real issue is with the schema.
