Try using this:

Code:

if($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE){
     $config['hostname'] = "localhost";
     $config['username'] = "myusername";
     $config['password'] = "mypassword";
     $config['database'] = "mydatabase";
     $config['dbdriver'] = "mysql";
     $config['dbprefix'] = "";
     $config['pconnect'] = FALSE;
     $config['db_debug'] = TRUE;
     $config['cache_on'] = FALSE;
     $config['cachedir'] = "";
     $config['char_set'] = "utf8";
     $config['dbcollat'] = "utf8_general_ci";

     $this->load->database($config);
} else {
     $this->load->view('form_success');
}

Change all the variables to match your database information.
