FILE is a global privilege (it's recorded only in the user table) and must be granted at that level:

Ah. That makes sense. Thanks.


I'm not sure why you're trying to grant to just "roy".  That's the
same as 'roy'@'%'.  Is that how your account is actually set up?

Yes. I've got a bit of a toy environment, on a secure network, for educational purposes, so I havn't really given much thought to this kind of stuff.

Okay. Then the GRANT statement I showed should end in "TO 'roy'", not "TO 'roy'@'localhost'".
