Hope your substitution of "midgrad" instead of the correct 'midgard' is a typo in the
message.
I recommend that you read the very concise and straightforward explanation of access
control in the MySQL manual. In my version of the manual (which may not be the
latest), it is section 6, "The MySQL access
privilege system". Start with section 6.7 Access control, stage1: Connection
verification. It explains how the user, db and host tables are used for different
aspects of access control. After finishing section
6, go back to the beginning of Section 6 and reread the whole section until it makes
sense. The "user" accessing the midgard db within MySQL is whatever MidgardUser you
put into the config file. This should
make the arrangement comprehensible.
Remember that sitting down and expecting something to work out of the box is an
end-user mentality -- if you are doing installations and such, you need to start
thinking like an admin (or like a geek) and RTFM.
O'Reilly books are great also. (Note that MS products only *appear* to work out of
the box....)
Read a bit in the manuals, try some things, read some more to see why the things you
tried didn't work, and if all else fails, try going to the appropriate mailing list
archive (there is always at least one) and
doing a search on your OS, on your error message, or whatever. The likelihood is that
someone has had the problem before.
Good luck and enjoy!
