Your database setup is wrong. This means your user otrs@localhost can't
connect to the OpenTRS database. Check the mysql password for otrs@localhost
in Kernel/Config.pm (e. g. set it new in mysql).

Try also '/opt/OpenTRS/bin/CheckDB.pl' for database checks.

PS: About your Apache user, you will find improvements in OTRS 1.0 to 
use OTRS with any Apache user without problems.

That's should not be the problem! :)
