   I decided to test out this new version of bbpress on another website I have on Godaddy. I couldn't link from BBPress to the Msql wordpress database and followed the steps to link to the database. Godaddy tested out and said that nothing wrong with the database.

   BBpress asking for
   Database Name (so tried with both Name and host name)
   Database User (so put in godaddy msql User Name for wordpress database)
   Database Password (Put in password to link to that database)

   Did not work and gave following message : There was a problem connecting to the database you specified.
   Please check the settings, then try again.

   Godaddy said that the settings are fine.

   Any suggestions.

   Click advanced settings and check if the host name there (default: localhost) is correct.
