I'm baffled by the problem I'm having. I created a database, created a user, and want to grant the user all privileges on the database. One way or another, I'm having syntax errors, while I'm fairly sure there is no syntax error.
MariaDB [(none)]> SELECT User FROM mysql.user;
+------------+
| User |
+------------+
| osticket |
| phpmyadmin |
| root |
+------------+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
MariaDB [(none)]> SHOW DATABASES;
+--------------------+
| Database |
+--------------------+
| information_schema |
| mysql |
| osticket |
| performance_schema |
| phpmyadmin |

5 rows in set (0.00 sec)
MariaDB [(none)]> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON 'osticket'.* TO 'osticket'#localhost;
ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near ''osticket'.* TO 'osticket'#localhost' at line 1
MariaDB [(none)]>
I also changed localhost to 'localhost' to be sure, no avail. What's going on here?
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `osticket`.* TO 'osticket'#localhost;
be aware of the quotations
`osticket`.*

Dears ,
I have two Virtual machines App1 & db ...
I installed Mysql in db machine , and I am trying on App1 machine to build EAR for springboot-demo-app following steps in this link (https://github.com/Mhussein27/springboot-demo-app)
But I am stuck in the step (mvn package) on app1 machine after exporting Mysql Configuration like the below , I am facing Unknown database error :
export APP_DATABASE_USER=testuser
export APP_DATABASE_PASSWORD=XXX
export APP_DATABASE_URL='jdbc:mysql://db:3306/testdb'
admin#app1:~/springboot-demo-app$ mvn package
Error:
Unable to obtain database connection

SQL State : 42000
Error Code : 1049
Message : Unknown database 'testdb'
on db machine I can see the testuser and the testdb schema and privileges are fine !

Please let me know what is wrong !!
I use mysql -u root -p to login to mysql. Command show databases only shows information_schema database, and current_user is not root
mysql> show databases;
+--------------------+
| Database |
+--------------------+
| information_schema |
+--------------------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)
mysql> select current_user();
+----------------+
| current_user() |
+----------------+
| #localhost |
+----------------+

You have no other databases - try to create one.
The current user is probably the anonymous user - by default MySQL ships with the following users, all having empty password (https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/default-privileges.html)
This is from my terminal in mac.
130-229-0-129-dhcp:~ suyeshamatya$ mysql
mysql> show databases;
+--------------------+
| Database |
+--------------------+
| information_schema |
| test |
+--------------------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)
mysql> quit
Bye
130-229-0-129-dhcp:~ suyeshamatya$ mysql -u root -p
Enter password:
mysql> show databases;
+--------------------+
| Database |
+--------------------+
| information_schema |
| lportal |
| mysql |
| performance_schema |
| test |
+--------------------+
5 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Can someone please explain why mysql is showing different number of databases when connecting without any username/password and when connecting with root username/password?
UPDATE:
Connected without username/password
mysql> show grants;
+--------------------------------------+
| Grants for #localhost |
+--------------------------------------+
| GRANT USAGE ON *.* TO ''#'localhost' |
+--------------------------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
Connected with root username/password
mysql> show grants;
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Grants for root#localhost |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'#'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD '********************' WITH GRANT OPTION |
| GRANT PROXY ON ''#'' TO 'root'#'localhost' WITH GRANT OPTION |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+

Grant USAGE means no privileges for that user according to Manual. So when you login without username and password. It will show default mysql schema. If you want to user using following query:
select User from mysql.user;
It will throw error like
SELECT command denied to user ''#'localhost' for table 'user';
Which means you do not have permission on default database to view users details.
If you login with username and password then all the databases created by that User will show you.
I am not sure but I think that the the "unknown user" has no privileges to see the other databases. Please check this in the mysql database.
I created a database from the mysql prompt. It is named "spring_security_tutorial".
Then, I created a user named "erdinc#localhost" and granted the user all the privileges for the "spring_security_tutorial" db.
Here is the "show databases" result when I am connected as root:
mysql> show databases;
+--------------------------+
| Database |
+--------------------------+
| information_schema |
| mysql |
| performance_schema |
| spring_security_tutorial |
| springsecurity |
| test |
+--------------------------+
6 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Here is the result of the command "use spring_security_tutorial" when I am connected as root:
mysql> use spring_security_tutorial;
ERROR 1049 (42000): Unknown database 'spring_security_tutorial'
Here is the result of the command "select user(), current_user()":
mysql> select user(), current_user()
+----------------+----------------+
| user() | current_user() |
+----------------+----------------+
| root#localhost | root#localhost |
+----------------+----------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
Here are the privileges of the root and erdinc users:
mysql> show grants for 'root'#'localhost';
+---------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Grants for root#localhost |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------+
| GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'#'localhost' WITH GRANT OPTION |
| GRANT PROXY ON ''#'' TO 'root'#'localhost' WITH GRANT OPTION |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)
mysql> show grants for 'erdinc'#'localhost';
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Grants for erdinc#localhost |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| GRANT USAGE ON *.* TO 'erdinc'#'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD '*8DCDD69CE7D121DE8013062AEAEB2A148910D50E' |
| GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `spring_security_tutorial`.* TO 'erdinc'#'localhost' WITH GRANT OPTION |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)
I cannot use the spring_security_tutorial database as root user even if I can see it with "show databases".
Also, when I am connected as "erdinc#localhost", I cannot even show the mentioned database.
It just shows the test and information_schema databases.
I am looking up for this for a couple of hours now. Actually I used to use mysql in the past, either something changed in the usage or I am missing something very obvious because this used to be a trivial task.
Thanks in advance.
Just trying out ubuntu server on my pc and have been testing some commands including mysql. I'm not sure why phpMyAdmin permitted me to create a database like this 'testing?db'. I'm trying to drop this database via SSH but I get this error:
mysql> show databases
-> ;
+--------------------+
| Database |
+--------------------+
| information_schema |
| mysql |
| phpmyadmin |
| testing?db |
| testing_db |
| wp |
+--------------------+
6 rows in set (0.00 sec)
mysql> DROP DATABASE testing?db;
ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '?db' at line 1
mysql>
I tried creating a database with a '?' in it and it also gives me syntax error. via ssh.
so how do I remove this database?
Try:
DROP DATABASE `testing?db`;
