Restrict User Access To A Specific Database


Currently I have several users set up and they can see all databases available. How do I set it up so that a user can only view a specific database? (my isp is using MySQL 3.23.56)

Restrict Database Access
I have a complete application developed using MySQL as the data server and Microsoft Visual Fox as the GUI. My users all have privileges dependent upon their job functions BUT I can not find a way that I can stop other applications from accessing and changing the data as long as they do so with a valid userid and password.

The reason this is a BIG problem is many of the 'rules' governing table updates are part of the application and NOT part of the database. I can not use the IP validation as it is quite possible the unwanted access and changes could come from the same IP that a valid change would come from. This seems like it should be so easy to solve but I have spent many hours in the documentation with no results.

Lock A User To A Specific Database
How can I create a new user, that only have access to his/hers database?

It's because I host my brother and my own site on my own server, but I have access to his databases, and he has access to my. How can I solve this?

Restrict Certain User
I want to do a small webhosting. How can I make some database only accesible to certain user?

Like user1 have access to database1 , database2 , database3.
User2 can't access database of user 1 without password , and etc.
How can I do that?

Restrict Access
I have a mysql server running on the same computer as users run database applications. The OS is Win2k.
One of them could easily tamper the database by replacing mysql files.

I spent last two week trying to limit access to mysql files. I have tried to deny all users, but Administrator, access to the files. The result is that not even the Administrator can access files even if he has full access (????). I've also tried to let mysql service logon as Administrator, but as long as Users don't have access to the mysql files, mysql won't start.

Create Error: Access Denied For User: '@localhost' To Database 'database Name'
I have already installed the php4, apache and mySQL on windowsXP SP2.
when I wanted to create database through PHP code it showed me error like this "Create Error: Access denied for user: '@localhost' to database 'database name'" and I can't even create database using mySQL either.

Access Denied For User ''@'localhost' To Database
Yesterday I got a new server with MySQL 5.0.22. Today I spent 10 hours trying to set up a database using webmin. Actually, it's not a problem to create a database, but the problem is that I can not connect. I tried different settings, no luck:

Access denied for user ''@'localhost' to database 'mydatabase'

I can connect from command line:

[root@server8]# mysql -u myusername -p
Enter password: ***
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or g.
.......
As you see I can connect.

My settings from webmin: Code:

Access Denied For User 'root'@'host' To Database 'db'
i'm trying to connect from a remote host to a db, and I just cannot. I can make a successful connection to another db (test), but not to the productive db.

I have tried some things (flush privileges, grant everything), but I still cannot connect to the db.

MySQL Database - Adding New Data Source 'Access Denied For User'
I am trying to install MySQL on my machine at the moment. I have downloaded the file mysql-essential-5.0.21-win32 from the MySQL website and installed it. I then downloaded MySQL Control Center, which came zipped in a folder called mysqlcc-0.9.2-win32.

I have installed both applications and I have a MySQL database which I have acquired from elsewhere. I copy/pasted it into my C:Program FilesMySQLMySQL Server 5.0data directory, but when I try to add a new database in MySQL CC it doesnt allow me.

I have also installed the ODBC for MySQL (called mysql-connector-odbc-3.51.12-win32). However, when I try to add a new data source in the Control Panel I get this error:

[MySQL][ODBC 3.51 Driver]Access denied for user 'versiontwo'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

versiontwo is the name of the database. the database has a password.

Error 1044:Access Denied For User: '@localhost' To Database 'library'
I have installed mysql-4.0.23-win. When I try to do 'create database library;' I am getting an error "Error 1044: Access denied for user: '@localhost' to database 'library'".

How to solve this problem?

Rated By A Specific User
I'll ask in this thread since the problem is somewhat similar.
What I have is

one table named products with fields product_id and product_name

one table named ratings with product_id, user_id, rating

and one table named users with user_id and username.

Ratings will contain entries added by users and what I need to do is select all products from the first table which have not been rated yet by a certain users identified by user_id.

Restrict Drop Database, Not Table
Is it possible to restrict my users from Dropping their database, but still allow them to drip their tables and data?

Specifying A User To Be Able To GRANT On A Specific Table
I tried giving said user GRANT power on a table, but it isn't working.

He currently has SELECT-only on this table, and nothing more.

the command: GRANT GRANT OPTION ON db.table TO username

Any idea why it isn't working?

What Is The Sql Way To Restrict "superadmin" Priv To One User?
Is there some way to restrict in mysql that certan field has only ONE ROW
with CERTAIN VALUE X while other rows can have any values but not this
one(so "unique" is not the answer..)?

This can be of course done in application level, but it would just be nice
to know. I would build my application so that only one user can be
superadmin, while others are normal admins or something else.

Of course this restriction would not be enough anyway, because I still need
to figure out what happens in different cases. So actual benefit would be
close to zero, but nerd idealist inside of me requires to know - "we have a
right to know".

Root User Denied Access To Fetch User List.
I can still log onto MySQL administrator or the command line program but I somehow appear to have lost all priveliges to alter or view the user list from this account. Even under the command line interface I can login but it tells me access is denied when I try to alter "root" permissions on a database.

I cannot seem to log onto any of the other accounts created but obviously if I could get into the user admin I could solve this.

Deleting Specific Words In Your Database?
I have a blog where I used a plugin that would allow me to add "technorati tags" to each of my posts. It uses the markup [tags]tag 1, tag 2, tag 3, etc[/tags]. However, I have come to find that it has done nothing to improve my visitor count, which was the only reason I chose to do it in the first place. My question is, is there a way to search the database and delete these tags, along with anything in between them, without deleting the rest of the post? Or do I have to do it manually?

Grant Users Privileges To Specific Database
system used:
Win2003srv, iis6, mysql4.1.7, phpmyadmin4.3.10

description:
I tried to grant a user 'cody' privileges to specific database 'cal_cody', but it won't do anything

Here are the steps I did:
created the user using phpmyadmin localhost and %
changed user password using the shell/console
user can login using the shell but not the phpmyadmin, no idea why
tried GRANT USAGE ON cal_cody.* TO 'cody'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'codypassword';
then reloaded the mysql service, didn't do anything.

User Access
I have added a user, this user can attach to mysql i.e.

mysql -Uusername -P database, but they can't access the database I want via
use database;

What permissions do I need to check?

Deleted Root User From 'user' Database!
I so stupidly deleted the root user from my mysql > user database. Now I can't login to mysql. I uninstalled the rpm and reinstalled it but it still won't let me setup a new root user. How can I delete the mysql data files so that I start again, fresh? Where are these files located? I can't find them anywhere after removing the RPM but they are obviously there because upon reinstalling the RPM I'm still in the same position--I try to do

mysqladmin -u root password 'password'

but it says "Access denied for user root@localhost"

Access Denied For User:
I have just installed a copy of MySql, Appache and PHP

All works well except that I get this error message in the MySQL error log

[client 127.0.0.1] PHP Warning:

Access Denied For User
Error: Access denied for user: 'aquavi@localhost' (Using password: YES)

I've seen this problem on this forum, but I don't understand the solution(s). It seems like I need to revert to the root password. I have no idea how to do this.

Access Denied For User
I have a dymanic site using PHP and MySQL. When I test it on the remote
server, it works great. But when I test it from the Apache server on my
development machine, whenever I try to access a .php page that accesses my
MySQL database, I get: Access denied for user: 'okmpc@localhost' (Using
password: YES).

Setting Up User Access
I am trying to set up a little webhosting thing for my friends. I do have a pretty decent knowlage with linux but not mysql. How can you make users and limit them to edit ONLY one database? I cant quite figure this out. I have done a lot of research, maybe im just not looking in the right place.

Access Denied For User
I login to my cPanel and click PhpMyAdmin and try to create the table "x_referrers" and it spits on the error message:

#1044 - Access denied for user: 'x@localhost' to database 'x_referrers'

It's never done this before, nor have I changed anything, what should I do?

i have the user 'rosschilen' setup in the /etc/webcalendar/settings.php file. I tried to setup the user 'rosschilen' in the database as it states in the admin documentation but i dont think i did it properly. I dont understand the notation(options) in the following command:

mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO webcalendar@localhost

Restricting User Access
Is there any way that I can restrict users' access to rows of a given table based on the value of a particular field? I can imagine how to do it when selecting records but I would like to it "more generally".

Access Denied For User
I'm trying to connect from Server_A to a db on a separate server, Server_B. I granted privileges to 'user' on Server_B using the following syntax:

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'user'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'password' WITH GRANT OPTION;

But, it still yields this message on Server_A:

Warning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user: 'user@111.111.111.111' (Using password: YES)

I verified that the password is correct, and I also flushed privileges after executing the above command.

Access Denied For User

Access Denied For User
I am using MySQL as the database for my SugarCRM application. I have been playing with the users and hosts so that I can connect to the MySQL database from other workstations. In the process, I seemed to have messed up the 'root' user. Now I am unable to connect to the database. I get the Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES) error when I try to open the MySQL administrator or try any type of connection.
How can I re-enable the 'root' user without having to re-install?

Access And MySQL User Permissions
I'm wondering how Access FrontEnd Users' username and passwords may be sent within a connection string when performing a query on MySQL tables. Maybe I'm just missing how Access and MySQl communicate here? If I set up security permissions on the Access front end forms/reports and database/table/record priveleges in MySQL how do I get them to work in conjunction with each other?

The only way I know how is to create the database connection in code using ADO and pass the username and password of the current user in the connection string. I don't know how to get a handle on the current user's username and password that were supplied when logging into Access. Could anyone shed some light as to how this arrangement is supposed to operate when verfiying user permissions on MySQL objects?

Error: 'Access Denied For User
I have recently upgraded to mysql-4.0.23 from mysql-3.23 on linux system.
I started the server using the command: /usr/bin/mysqld_safe --user=root &
When I try to shutdown the server using the command: mysqladmin --user=root shutdown
I am getting the error as follows :
/usr/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO)'

And hence to shudown the server,i always need to kill the running mysqld process.I dont think its advisable to do this always.

Please ,help me in this regard and tell me the right command to shutdown the server.

1045 Access Denied For User
I made a db through Cpanel as usual (usr.pw-all privileges).

If I go now to phpmyadmin I see the db but don't see the users. I only see "No privileges" in red, although I made a user to the db in a correct manner.

when I want to make contact with the db through dreamweaver he gives the error: 1045 denied for user to access.

Mysql User With Shell Access
Is there any reason the mysql user account in a linux system would need shell access and a password? I thought it was just there to be a very underprivileged user and run the mysqld daemon.

Warning: Mysql_connect(): Access Denied For User:
any ideas hoe to fix this:

Warning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user: 'admin@localhost' (Using password: YES) in /home/admin/public_html/_database.php on line 55

.............................

I looked on the server and it appears that all the users are gone?

Thanks

Configure 2 Sites To Access One User Table
I have two databases on the same server with different domains. I would like both sites to access the same user database table. They have the same fields.

I thought that it might just be done with an mysql command, which will point one table to the other.

Access Denied For User 'root'@'localhost'
I am having this error message:

Check the pictures

#1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

I am using WAMP5,I tried to change the password in config file but no use.last time I had to uninstall and reinstall to reset the root password.

what am I doing wrong?am I looking at the wrong file?

ERROR 1045: Access Denied For User
Situation:
One common MySQL database server on SuSE 9.1 with all updates.
Uses 'rinetd'. Has entries for the appropriate IP addresses of all
servers.
NOTE: If the appropirate entries are NOT in rinetd, the error message
is:
ERROR 2013: Lost connection to MySQL server during query

Using the exact same query from prompt on several clients (some are
SuSE 9.1, some are older Redhat systems, but none are configured
identically).
Example (upper case indicates private stuff):
mysql -uUSER -pPASSWORD -h MYSQLSERVER.TLD.COM -e "select * from
sometable" DATABASENAME
returns correct results on all but one server. On that one
problemmatic server (SuSE 9.1), the result is:
ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'USER@localhost' (Using password:
YES)

Has anyone had a similar problem? Ideas for the soluton? I feel like
there is a missing configuration option on the problematic client, or a
missing library, or something, but have not been able to isolate
anything.

Yes, the -u and -p are the SAME from each client (this is all inside
the firewall), so I don't see how this can be a user or privileges
problem.
Anyway, I've done 'flush privileges' and I've restarted the database
server (/etc/init.d/mysqld restart), even the server has rebooted since

PhpMyAdmin - #1044 - Access Denied For User
I am attempting to setup my database with my host, Turtle Hosting. I'm using phpMyAdmin, but it is giving me the error:

SQL query:
CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS `crmpicco_mini` ;

MySQL said: Documentation
#1044 - Access denied for user 'ayrshire'@'localhost' to database 'crmpicco_mini'

I logged into my MySQL Client on my local machine, and entered:
"GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES on crmpicco_mini.* TO 'ayrshire' IDENTIFIED BY 'mypassword';"

I log into my control panel with Turtle Hosting with the username 'ayrshire', so i presume that is why it has defaulted to 'ayrshire' as the db username.

Access Denied Even Though User Is Set In The Grant Tables
I have a MySQL directory uploaded to a remote domain so that: www."mydomain".com/mysql is where it's stored.

I have set the grant tables up to give me access. In fact I have played around with the grant tables in every which way I can to try and grant me access! Each time, I have uploaded the mysql directory (inside the data dir) and tried again to get in.

I've tried it with a password, without, with a specific host name, with %, etc etc. I have tried to access the db from the command prompt of my local machine and using Navicat. Each time I get "access denied for "me"@"host".

I do appear to be connecting in some way to mysql as I do get asked for a password. But it seems like the info in the grant tables is wrong somehow? I'm baffled.

The connection data I use is the IP of my domain (I've tried the URL as well) my username and password, and the port 3306.

The reason I need to access MySQL is to start it so that the phpBB also installed on my domain can function. I have seen people talk about Telnet access to get in via the command prompt but I dunno how to do that (blush) so as a stop-gap can anyone tell me how to do that?!

Access Denied For User 'ODBC' @ 'localhost'.. : )
i'm using windows 2000, PHP 4.3, APACHE 2.0 web server and MYSQL 4.1

i've installed MYSQL correctly, but when i tried to type this command -->
c:mysqlshow

then error message come out-->
access denied for user 'ODBC'@'localhost' <'using password: NO'>

so i tried to fix it, and re-enter this command with password -->
c:mysqlshow -p

but again error message come out -->
access denied for user 'ODBC'@'localhost' <'using password: YES'>
