--- Comment #10 from LarsE <ristrett...@live.com> --- Hi Maik, today I had some time to do some more testing. Please see the results below. I think it's important to put some more information in advance to allow for a better understanding of my set-up: - I'm working on a computer "X" with digikam - the database runs on a different computer "mariadb" Therefore I initially set up a user "digikam@192.168.178.__" in the mariadb server with all rights activated for all digikam* databases. Doing so, I wanted to grant users from a certain set of systems in the network access to the digikam databases. This in mind, I now tested some user configurations: digikam@mariadb =============== Doesn't work at all. Starting digikam results in a no access to the database error and that's clear to me, since computer "X" connecting to the mariaDB server is not computer "mariadb". digikam@192.168.178.__ ====================== Activated all rights on all digikam* databases. This works fine for accessing the database normally (setting and filtering tags, viewing the photo thumbnails, etc.), but not for the faces feature. When changing to the People tab in digikam, we get the already known error: [16120] Error messages: "QMYSQL: Unable to execute query" "Access denied for user 'digikam'@'192.168.178.__' (using password: YES)" "1045" 2 Now I added also all global rights to this user, resulting in the following message, when trying to access the People view in digikam: [11068] Error messages: "QMYSQL: Unable to execute query" "The user specified as a definer ('digikam'@'%') does not exist" "1449" 2 digikam@% ========= Setting all rights on all digikam* databases, no global rights. -> This user now works also for the People tab. Does this make sense to you? Seems as if different users are called by digikam when working on the database? If it would be necessary to add a user "digikam@%", this from my point of view would be not very nice with respect to access control. You can't restrict systems in the network from connecting to the digikam* databases. Cheers, Lars. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
