Re: Problem with GRANT ... 'user'@'%'
On my servers i'm using the 'user'@'localhost' for PHP apps. running on the local web-server. Those users allocated for web-apps can only connect to their specific DB from localhost.

Re: Problem with GRANT ... 'user'@'%'
If you don't specify a hostname in SHOW GRANTS, '%' is assumed. My mistake for not telling you this before. If you enable networking, and connect with mysql -h 127.0.0.1 instead of mysql -h localhost Well, in fact 127.0.0.1 and localhost produce the same effect but by using the ip address of the server works fine :D Somebody has just sent a comment saying that localhost and a normal ip address work different, and in fact was right, now am able to connect to the ip instead of localhost...

Re: Problem with GRANT ... 'user'@'%'
Hm, I didn't know that! I thought it was only a special value to the client tools, which I know will try to connect via socket on UNIX machines when they see 'localhost' but will try to connect via TCP/IP when they see '127.0.0.1'. Thanks for pointing this out! Baron In fact that was the problem, connecting to localhost didn't work unless I add specifically localhost... If tried with the host ip or name worked perfectly, so your comment had sense and solved it all... Just one comment, 127.0.0.1 had the same effect as localhost, I should connect to the specific host ip or name.

If you enable networking, and connect with mysql -h 127.0.0.1 instead of mysql -h localhost You will connect via TCP/IP, and you will be connecting as 'myuser'@'%' user. (As someone else said, localhost is a magical value with special behavior; it defaults to connecting via a socket on UNIX-ish systems, instead of TCP/IP). The simplest way to set this server configuration, if you haven't already, is probably to set bind-address to 127.0.0.1, which allows TCP/IP connections from the same machine. If you want to be able to connect from elsewhere, set it to the server's IP address.

Descriptions of your understanding of an error message are a poor substitute for the actual error message itself. If you want a definitive answer, you need to supply the exact text of the error message you received (as I asked in my previous message). That said, I'll go out on a limb and take a guess. '%' does mean any host, but '%' is the least specific of any possible host sppecification. You need to read the description of the authentication process in the manual http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/connection-access.html. Entries in the user table are sorted from most specific to least, with host taking precedence over user. You are attempting to connect as [EMAIL PROTECTED], but 127.0.0.1 is localhost. Here are some possible users which would match, in descending order of specificity: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ''@localhost [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] My guess is you have a more specific entry than [EMAIL PROTECTED] that is a match. We would know for sure if you included the error message. Michael -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: Problem with GRANT...WITH GRANT OPTION
'GRANT GRANT ON table_or_database_name ...' gave a syntax error. 'GRANT GRANT OPTION ON table_or_database_name ...' worked, but the result was as before, i.e. the new user still couldn't grant access to the table or database.

DB init script problem with Grant statements
Hello, I am having a weird problem with some sql that is supposed to set up a DB for me. When I run the .sql file manually from the command line like this: mysql --user=root DB_init.sql It works fine. But when I do the same command from a shell script that is run during the kickstart setup of the server, it seems to be stopping processing of the file after the first grant statement. I changed the command to: mysql --user=root -v -v -v DB_init.sql to try to get some indication of what mysql is doing and why it's stopping, but that didn't tell me much. It just showed me where it was stopping (after the first grant statement), but didn't seem to provide any answer as to why. Here's the DB_init.sql script that I'm trying to run (this is run during kickstart setup to set up a DB and some tables on the server): DB_init.sql begin # create users CONNECT mysql; # perl user REPLACE INTO user (host, user, password) VALUES ( 'localhost', 'vsperl', 'encrpyted passwd' ); REPLACE INTO db (host, db, user, select_priv, insert_priv, update_priv, delete_priv, create_priv, drop_priv) VALUES ( 'localhost', 'RelayStats', 'vsperl', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y' ); # php user REPLACE INTO user (host, user, password) VALUES ( 'localhost', 'vsphp', 'encrpyted passwd' ); REPLACE INTO db (host, db, user, select_priv, insert_priv, update_priv, delete_priv, create_priv, drop_priv) VALUES ( 'localhost', 'RelayStats', 'vsphp', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y', 'Y' ); # database creation CREATE DATABASE RelayStats; CONNECT RelayStats; # # Table structure for table `host` # CREATE TABLE `host` ( `id` float NOT NULL auto_increment, `name` varchar(255) NOT NULL default '', `ip` varchar(255) default NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`id`), KEY `Name` (`name`) ); # # Table structure for table `stats` # CREATE TABLE `stats` ( `id` float NOT NULL auto_increment, `host_id` float NOT NULL default '0', `virus_id` float NOT NULL default '0', `date` date NOT NULL default '-00-00', `time` time NOT NULL default '00:00:00', PRIMARY KEY (`id`), KEY `Host_Id` (`host_id`,`virus_id`), KEY `date` (`date`), KEY `Timestamp` (`time`) ); # # Table structure for table `virus` # CREATE TABLE `virus` ( `id` float NOT NULL auto_increment, `name` varchar(255) NOT NULL default '', `date_added` datetime NOT NULL default '-00-00 00:00:00', PRIMARY KEY (`id`), KEY `Name` (`name`), KEY `date_added` (`date_added`) ); # grant permissions on all the tables #GRANT SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, DELETE ON table to user; GRANT SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, DELETE ON host to [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ; GRANT SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, DELETE ON host to [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ; GRANT SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, DELETE ON stats to [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ; GRANT SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, DELETE ON stats to [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ; GRANT SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, DELETE ON virus to [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ; GRANT SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, DELETE ON virus to [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ; FLUSH PRIVELEGES; # done. DB_init.sql end And the output from mysql ends like this: begin mysql output -- CREATE TABLE `virus` ( `id` float NOT NULL auto_increment, `name` varchar(255) NOT NULL default '', `date_added` datetime NOT NULL default '-00-00 00:00:00', PRIMARY KEY (`id`), KEY `Name` (`name`), KEY `date_added` (`date_added`) ) -- Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec) -- GRANT SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, DELETE ON host to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Bye end mysql output Does anybody have any idea why it's just stopping after that first Grant statement? And why it works when I run it manaully, but for some unknown reason doesn't work during the kickstart install? thx! k
Sudden problem with Grant Tables on Windows NT
I have installed MySQL on a PC with Windows NT. As the MySQL dir is not on c:, I have copied the 'my.cnf' file to c:, and I have edited it to MySQL work with InnoDB tables. All has been working fine, but suddendly, without change any, when I have tried to start up MySQL with the command mysqld-max --standalone (as usually) I have got the message: mysqld-max: Table 'mysql.host' doesn't exist in the 'mysql.err' file. I have found that I start up MySQL with: mysqld-max -Sg --standalone, then it works. How can I solve the problem to be able to start up mysqld-max with the full functionality (without use -Sg option)? I was thinking that the origin of this problem was that I have not privilege tables on my PC. But I think also that when I install MySQL on Windows NT, the privilege table are being creatend during the installation process (MySQL was woriking fine at the beginning). Please, can you help me?

Problem with Grant command

I typed the following command: GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO root@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'my password in here'; to this command the system responds: ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: YES) I realize this command is redundant, but it proves my point.

Problem with grant for another user with password
Hello, I have a mysql (3.23) server running on a linux system. The server has several databases belonging to the (unix) user who created his database. So each Student may create his own database and usually only he himself may access/modify the data in this database. This creation of a new database is done by a web interface executed as the mysql-root user. The problem now is, that sometimes a database should not only be accessible by the owner himself but also by another user protected by a password. So the owner x of a database wants to do this: $ mysql -h mysqlserver -u x -p xyz mysql grant select on dbOfUserX.* to otherUser identified by 'otherPassword'; ERROR 1044: Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' to database 'mysql' The user otherUser does not already exist in the mysql users table. The user x has the grant right and just saying: mysql grant select on dbOfUserX.* to otherUser; works just fine. But user x is unable to allow someone else to access his database with password protection. So the question is, how can the privilege system be set up, so that a user x can allow another user y to access his database by password (different from the password of the user x of course). Another question is, how can I (the db-admin) allow a user to access the mysql-DB (to allow the password change) without allowing him to change passwords of other users that already exist in the mysql user table (having their own databases)? Where is the information stored, that allows a user (execpt for root) to access the mysql database.
