Can anyone tell me why I am receiving the following error? I am connecting to a remote server via ssh, and accessed the mysql prompt by typing: mysql .... The following is the screen contents after trying to use the ALTER TABLE command; 'dbname' has been sub'd for actual database name.
<screen contents start> Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MySQL connection id is 1451062 to server version: 3.23.43 Type 'help' for help. mysql> connect dbname Connection id: 1451083 Current database: dbname mysql> ALTER TABLE Advertisers PACK_KEYS=0; ERROR 2000: Access denied for user: '@localhost' to database 'dbname' <screen contents end> Can anyone give me some insight as to why I cannot do this? Do I require root privileges to do this (right now I am logged in as a user, as this remote server is an ISP)? Steve Osborne Database Programmer Chinook Multimedia Inc.
