Edit the database.php file in

application/config/database.php

$db['default'] = array(
    'dsn'   => '',
    'hostname' => 'localhost',
    'username' => 'root', // ADD USERNAME HERE
    'password' => '', // PASSWORD
    'database' => 'database_name', // DATABASE NAME
    'dbdriver' => 'mysqli',
    'dbprefix' => '',
    'pconnect' => TRUE,
    'db_debug' => TRUE,
    'cache_on' => FALSE,
    'cachedir' => '',
    'char_set' => 'utf8',
    'dbcollat' => 'utf8_general_ci',
    'swap_pre' => '',
    'encrypt' => FALSE,
    'compress' => FALSE,
