i just tried to reproduce this and i think you got something wrong here.
Installing the zabbix-frontend-php package however also Installs the
zabbix-server-mysql one, which is in the packages Recommends.

Per default, the Zabbix Username and the Zabbix Password you specify during the
zabbix-server installation, should also be used in the frontends package,
(which will ask you which zabbix database/user/password to use).

Otherwise, if you want to use 2 different users, you have to create one user by
yourself, because the frontend package does not *create* any database users, it
just asks you for the username to use .. (ideally the one you specified during
the zabbix-server-* installation).

The dbconfig common scripts work like expected and create all needed users
and schemas within the DB.
 
bye,
