Re: Add New User
Ok thank you for your replies. I finally got it working, but as you stated I granted too many permissions. I found that in the user table my testUser had N for every column with the exception of the last few which where 0. I first logged into the database using: shellmysql -u root -p mysql So I used: mysqlGRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON test.* TO 'testUser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'some_password'; and: mysqlGRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON test.* TO 'testUser'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'some_password'; Then I did: mysql select * from user where user.User='testUser'; Which returned: | Host | User | Password | Select_priv | Insert_priv | Update_priv | Delete_priv | Create_priv | Drop_priv | Reload_priv | Shutdown_priv | Process_priv | File_priv | Grant_priv | References_priv | Index_priv | Alter_priv | Show_db_priv | Super_priv | Create_tmp_table_priv | Lock_tables_priv | Execute_priv | Repl_slave_priv | Repl_client_priv | Create_view_priv | Show_view_priv | Create_routine_priv | Alter_routine_priv | Create_user_priv | ssl_type | ssl_cipher | x509_issuer | x509_subject | max_questions | max_updates | max_connections | max_user_connections | +---+--+--- +-+-+-+-+- +---+-+---+--+--- ++-++ +--++---+-- +--+-+--+-- ++-+ +--+--++- +--+---+-+- +--+ | % | testUser | *12F46AB3EF1939F7B217B125466177AFA18495CF | N | N | N | N | N | N | N | N | N| N | N | N | N | N | N| N | N | N| N| N | N| N| N | N | N | N| | | | | 0 | 0 | 0 |0 | | localhost | testUser | *12F46AB3EF1939F7B217B125466177AFA18495CF | N | N | N | N | N | N | N | N | N| N | N | N | N | N | N| N | N | N| N| N | N| N| N | N | N | N| | | | | 0 | 0 | 0 |0 | I then did: UPDATE user SET Select_priv='Y',Insert_priv='Y',Update_priv='Y',Delete_priv='Y',Create_p riv='Y' WHERE user.User='testUser'; I can now access the server using my test user: testUser. However, even though I specified 'test.*' my test user can access the mysql database. doesn't test.* limit the user to the test database? or should it have been 'test' no quotes of course. Is there a way to update the database access without deleting the user and redoing it all? Thanks for the help.
