how to access Synology's mysql (mariadb) on the command line
My Synology station is on 192.168.178.27, the database listens to port 3306, on my FritzBox I forwarded port 3306 to 192.168.178.27, I /can/ connect to the database on http://192.168.178.27/phpMyAdmin/ But when I try: mysql --host=192.168.178.27 --password=* --user=wybo I get: ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'wybo'@'wybo.fritz.box' (using password: YES) What am I doing wrong? -- Wybo -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/mysql

Access is granted only if three parts are correct: 1) the login you are using (wybo) 2) the password for the login 3) the host you are connecting from (wybo.fritz.box) is allows to use that account. It's #3 that most people forget about. Run this query SELECT host FROM mysql.user WHERE user='wybo'; If you see a pattern in the results that would match your host's name, then you need to compare your password hashes. If you don't know if you have a matching host pattern, post the list of host patterns you got from the query to the list. We can tell you.

Hello Wybo, I cleansed your reply and cc:'ed the list again to share the answer.

However, when I browse the user table, I also see %edited%, which is the hostname of the synology station, see the attached screenshot (%also edited%). Does this mean that I have to add a new entry in this table? If so, can I do that via phpMysqlAdmin? Yes, you will need to use your phpMysqlAdmin session to issue an appropriate GRANT command so that the 'wybo' user can login from 'wybo.fritz.box'. Example - GRANT the permissions you want to give on *.* to 'wybo'@'wybo.fritz.box' IDENTIFIED BY 'password goes here in plain text' Research the GRANT command itself (and the other account management commands) to see what else you can do while creating an account or adjusting permissions. http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/account-management-sql.html Examples of the types of host patterns you can use are also in the manual, here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/account-names.html Yours, -- Shawn Green MySQL Senior Principal Technical Support Engineer Oracle USA, Inc. - Hardware and Software, Engineered to Work Together.
