I'm creating a SAAS website, and every new account creation should have :
a new database created for it dynamically from my php code ,
a new MySQL user created dynamically from my PHP code and granted with privileges over the new database.
My question is: How can I create a MySQL user who have privileges to do these actions , ( create db, create users, grant privileges).
But It's important to note: I want this MySQL user to not be able to show or manipulate any other database not created by him.
Note: I have a server with WHM access.
To enable the new user called userguy to create other users on database db
create the user
CREATE USER 'userguy'#'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
he needs reload on global rights
GRANT CREATE USER, RELOAD ON *.* TO 'userguy'#'%';
then whatever rights you want to give him on db
GRANT EXECUTE, SELECT, SHOW VIEW, ALTER, ALTER ROUTINE, CREATE, CREATE ROUTINE, CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES, CREATE VIEW, DELETE, DROP, EVENT, INDEX, INSERT, REFERENCES, TRIGGER, UPDATE, LOCK TABLES ON `db`.* TO 'userguy'#'%' WITH GRANT OPTION;
and flush at the end
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
this should do the job.
UPDATE:
I am sorry, I have not read attentive the question (blame the coffee). If the user should also create new databases he also needs the global CREATE right, and for creating user for the DBs created by him he also needs CREATE USER
GRANT CREATE, CREATE USER, SELECT, RELOAD ON *.* TO 'userguy'#'%';
In my opinion there is no need for global GRANT privileges
I have found the main answer to my problem in the following link:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/13041542/9419598
By using :
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON testuser_% . * TO 'testuser'#'%';
this will allow the testuser to create databases starting with testuser_ and will have al priviledges over them
And he will not have privileges over other databases.
And I can grant him the create user privilege
This does the stuff.

I'm using MYSQL 8.0.25, running on WAMP server.
By mistake I changed user root's privilege by unchecked (insert) privilege and pressed (go), so the changes are assigned.
The problems are:
the super user (root) can't insert, see databases, create or do anything.
there is not another super user to give super permissions to (root) again or create super user like root
I can't create super user or return super permissions to (root) because there is no super user
I want to return all permissions to root again. What should I do?
could you help me

I am logged in as root user and i just reinstalled the mysql server. login_manager isn't created as is shown when i execute SELECT * FROM mysql.user;. I now execute
CREATE USER 'login_manager'#'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'login_manager'; and when i check if the user is created, i can find it. Executing
GRANT INSERT
ON clients
TO login_manager;
where client is a table gives me the error i put in the title. Executing FLUSH PRIVILEGES; after creating the user didn't help either. I flushed privileges before creating the user. I looked that up, and normally this error comes when you try to create the user in the grant statement, which i am not doing.
I know this is long, but here are the Grants that root has:
'GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP, RELOAD, SHUTDOWN, PROCESS, FILE, REFERENCES, INDEX, ALTER, SHOW DATABASES, SUPER, CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES, LOCK TABLES, EXECUTE, REPLICATION SLAVE, REPLICATION CLIENT, CREATE VIEW, SHOW VIEW, CREATE ROUTINE, ALTER ROUTINE, CREATE USER, EVENT, TRIGGER, CREATE TABLESPACE, CREATE ROLE, DROP ROLE ON *.* TO `root`#`localhost` WITH GRANT OPTION'
and
'GRANT APPLICATION_PASSWORD_ADMIN,AUDIT_ADMIN,BACKUP_ADMIN,BINLOG_ADMIN,BINLOG_ENCRYPTION_ADMIN,CLONE_ADMIN,CONNECTION_ADMIN,ENCRYPTION_KEY_ADMIN,GROUP_REPLICATION_ADMIN,INNODB_REDO_LOG_ARCHIVE,INNODB_REDO_LOG_ENABLE,PERSIST_RO_VARIABLES_ADMIN,REPLICATION_APPLIER,REPLICATION_SLAVE_ADMIN,RESOURCE_GROUP_ADMIN,RESOURCE_GROUP_USER,ROLE_ADMIN,SERVICE_CONNECTION_ADMIN,SESSION_VARIABLES_ADMIN,SET_USER_ID,SHOW_ROUTINE,SYSTEM_USER,SYSTEM_VARIABLES_ADMIN,TABLE_ENCRYPTION_ADMIN,XA_RECOVER_ADMIN ON *.* TO `root`#`localhost` WITH GRANT OPTION'
and
'GRANT PROXY ON ''#'' TO 'root'#'localhost' WITH GRANT OPTION'
Your login_manager user has a Host entry, likely localhost or %.
Because of this, your GRANT technically isn't for that user, it's for a login_manager with no Host entry - so mysql knows it would have to create the user with no Host first.
Asuming you used localhost when you created the user, use this to do the grants:
GRANT INSERT
ON clients
TO 'login_manager'#'localhost';
I have a strange issue. Im using Msql 8 via Docker and Im able to connect via IDE like DataGrip to connect to my db with root user. But only with root. Im trying to establish a connection with a non-root user but It is not working even with all privileges.
I thought I did something wrong when creating a new user, but in my local environment Im able to connect to my db with a non-root user.
This works:
mysql --user=test mysql -p
Priviligeses:
| GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP, RELOAD, SHUTDOWN, PROCESS, FILE, REFERENCES, INDEX, ALTER, SHOW DATABASES, SUPER, CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES, LOCK TABLES, EXECUTE, REPLICATION SLAVE, REPLICATION CLIENT, CREATE VIEW, SHOW VIEW, CREATE ROUTINE, ALTER ROUTINE, CREATE USER, EVENT, TRIGGER, CREATE TABLESPACE, CREATE ROLE, DROP ROLE ON *.* TO `test`#`localhost` WITH GRANT OPTION |
| GRANT BACKUP_ADMIN,BINLOG_ADMIN,CONNECTION_ADMIN,ENCRYPTION_KEY_ADMIN,GROUP_REPLICATION_ADMIN,PERSIST_RO_VARIABLES_ADMIN,REPLICATION_SLAVE_ADMIN,RESOURCE_GROUP_ADMIN,RESOURCE_GROUP_USER,ROLE_ADMIN,SET_USER_ID,SYSTEM_VARIABLES_ADMIN,XA_RECOVER_ADMIN ON *.* TO `test`#`localhost` WITH GRANT OPTION
I know there are several similiar question and I tried all of them. But none of them worked or changed something.
Btw. I created my user this way:
CREATE USER 'test'#'localhost' IDENTITY BY 'password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'test'#'localhost';
I am trying to give explicit permissions to an user on mysql and im doing this (to an already created user)
GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, INDEX, ALTER, SHOW DATABASES,
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES, LOCK TABLES, EXECUTE, CREATE VIEW, SHOW VIEW,
CREATE ROUTINE, ALTER ROUTINE, EVENT, TRIGGER
ON mydatabase.*
TO 'myuser'#'localhost' ;
But im getting this weird error:
Incorrect usage of DB GRANT and GLOBAL PRIVILEGES
I tried on other schemas with other users making a GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES and seems is working. Any idea?
Some privileges only make sense when the grant references ON *.* as the schema.table.
The manual page https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/grant.html lists all the available privileges, and notes each for global, database, table, based on whether you can grant them at different levels of scope.
The SHOW DATABASES privilege can only be granted at the global level.
So you'll have to do it this way:
GRANT SHOW DATABASES
ON *.*
TO 'myuser'#'localhost' ;
GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, INDEX, ALTER,
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES, LOCK TABLES, EXECUTE, CREATE VIEW, SHOW VIEW,
CREATE ROUTINE, ALTER ROUTINE, EVENT, TRIGGER
ON mydatabase.*
TO 'myuser'#'localhost' ;
I had the strange thing that the "root" user had the rights to grant rights, but I still had to use the user "admin" instead.
With root, I got:
SQL Error [1045] [28000]: Access denied for user 'root'#'%' (using password: YES)
It might just be the setup, but when I look it up in the GUI of DBeaver (Connection --> Users --> Grants --> View Grants), they both have all of the rights checked, and I still cannot grant rights with the "root" user.
Perhaps it helps someone with another weird db setup.
Admin:
Root:
I have a user in MySQL with the following privileges:
GRANT USAGE ON *.* TO 'certain_db'#'192.168.1.1' IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD '****'
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `certain_db`.* TO 'certain_db'#'192.168.1.1'
If I drop this database, do I maintain the right to create it afterwards?
Yes. All information related to user access, privileges, etc is stored in a database named 'mysql'. Information related to database privileges is stored in table 'db'. When you drop a database your privileges over it are not deleted.
So, if you want to create a database with the SAME name later you will be able to.
