You haven't specified the host, try this : To connect only from the localhost : GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'testUser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'some_password' WITH GRANT OPTION; Or if you want to be able to connect from any host : GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'testUser'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'some_password' WITH GRANT OPTION; Or if you would like to be able to connect from some host : GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'testUser'@'host_name_or_ip' IDENTIFIED BY 'some_password' WITH GRANT OPTION; > > I get the following returned: > > Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec) > > > Why is this not working?
