I can try (grin) and being new is not new

In the terminal window do the following
mysql -uroot -p  (return)       << gets you into the mysql shell with admin
privs if you do not know the password try your root pwd
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON zm.* TO 'zmuser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY
"zmpass";   << should/must be case sensitive just copy and paste

Quit    << gets you OUT of mysql
sudo apt-get upgrade  << you will be prompted for the password

After a few minutes and lots of activity you should/may need to reboot

Then you should not see the error message

Hope this helps

Let me know if you have any more questions
