I'm trying to create a csv export of data from mysql using the following query:
SELECT * INTO OUTFILE '/tmp/result.csv'
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
ESCAPED BY '\\'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n'
FROM getfreepellets WHERE 1
And I get the following error:
#1045 - Access denied for user '[username]'#'localhost' (using password: YES)
(removed username but it's the right one)
How would I go about granting access to this user to create a file on the server?
Edit:
I changed the first line to be my exact home path, and received the same error.
You may want to GRANT your user the FILE privilege:
The FILE privilege gives you permission to read and write files on the server host using the LOAD DATA INFILE and SELECT ... INTO OUTFILE statements and the LOAD_FILE() function.
A user who has the FILE privilege can read any file on the server host that is either world-readable or readable by the MySQL server. (This implies the user can read any file in any database directory, because the server can access any of those files.) The FILE privilege also enables the user to create new files in any directory where the MySQL server has write access. As a security measure, the server will not overwrite existing files.
To grant the FILE privilege, log-in as root and execute:
GRANT FILE ON *.* TO 'your_user'#'localhost';

When I try to export records using the below query, I am getting an error
SELECT ID, Name FROM Emp
INTO OUTFILE 'C:/temp/hash.csv'
FIELDS ENCLOSED BY '"'
TERMINATED BY ';'
ESCAPED BY '"'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\r\n';
Error:
SQL Error (1045): Access denied for user 'test'#'%' (using password: YES)
I am getting same error while running the below:
GRANT FILE ON *.* TO 'test';
SHOW VARIABLES LIKE "secure_file_priv";
secure_file_priv: /tmp/
I want to run a stored procedure to export the records through a .Net application. I am expecting the output file to be created on the windows computer. The MySQL instance is running on AWS.I think the "secure_file_priv" path is causing the issue. The same query is working in another MySQL instance that is running on windows server.
Thank you.
You need to out file the csv file to aws instance first, and then download it to your windows computer.
I have a table in a database myDatabase in Amazon RDS. Let it be myTable.
use myDatabase;
SELECT * from myTable INTO OUTFILE 'myFile.csv' FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' ENCLOSED BY '"'LINES
TERMINATED BY '\n';
I get this error
Error Code: 1045. Access denied for user '<<UserName>>'#'%' (using password: YES)
I tried running this command
GRANT USAGE ON *.* TO '<<UserName>>'#'%' IDENTIFIED BY '<<password>>';
flush privileges;
0 row(s) affected, 1 warning(s): 1287 Using GRANT statement to modify existing user's
properties other than privileges is deprecated and will be removed in future release. Use
ALTER USER statement for this operation.
I get this warning.
And
I am not able to export the table into a .CSV file at all.
Any idea on how to solve it ? Any thoughts on the steps which might have gone wrong ?
Make sure your user has the FILE privilege.
FILE
Affects the following operations and server behaviors:
Enables reading and writing files on the server host using the LOAD DATA and SELECT ... INTO OUTFILE statements and the LOAD_FILE()
function. A user who has the FILE privilege can read any file on the
server host that is either world-readable or readable by the MySQL
server. (This implies the user can read any file in any database
directory, because the server can access any of those files.)
Enables creating new files in any directory where the MySQL server has write access. This includes the server's data directory containing
the files that implement the privilege tables.
manual entry
When I run the below query:
SELECT * FROM selecteddb.mytable
where time between "2018-08-06 00:00:00" and "2018-08-13 00:00:00"
INTO outfile "~/stats.csv"
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' ENCLOSED BY '\"' LINES TERMINATED BY '\n';
I get the below error:
Error Code: 1045. Access denied for user 'admin'#'%' (using password: YES)
But when I run just the query without outfile it runs just fine.
I'm using MySQL Workbench and Mac to run the query.
It looks like your admin user doesn't have FILE privilege. You can grant the permission and it will work.
GRANT FILE ON * . * TO 'admin'#'%';
The SELECT ... INTO OUTFILE 'file_name' form of SELECT writes the
selected rows to a file. The file is created on the server host, so
you must have the FILE privilege to use this syntax. file_name cannot
be an existing file, which among other things prevents files such as
/etc/passwd and database tables from being destroyed. The
character_set_filesystem system variable controls the interpretation
of the file name.

=========================================================
Also note that mysql server needs to have write permission on the path you provide.
The FILE privilege also enables the user to create new files in any
directory where the MySQL server has write access. This includes the
server's data directory containing the files that implement the
privilege tables.
If you execute your query as:
SELECT * FROM selecteddb.mytable ..... INTO outfile "~/stats.csv";
This will try to create the file in the home directory. If you omit the paths and leave only the file name, it will be created in the Mysql's data directory. (/var/lib/mysql in my Ubuntu machine).
So this should work without any problem.
SELECT * FROM selecteddb.mytable ..... INTO outfile "stats.csv";
Hope it helps!!
i have a simple shell script that is trying to connect to a database and is trying to load a text file into a database table through load infile statement inside a script and the script throws this error
ERROR 1045 (28000) at line 6: Access denied for user 'user'#'%' (using password: YES)
The script is
#!/bin/bash
#connect to the db
mysql -u bsm_admin -pbsmP1N1 -h ilcldbpbsm01 << EOFMYSQL
show databases;
use database;
show tables;
load data infile 'plugins.txt' into table jenkins fields terminated by ':' lines terminated by '\n';
EOFMYSQL
so the problem is other statememts work but the error comes at load data infile line.
i tried checking whether the user has write permissions to the database and i was able to create and insert data to the table through command line, so i am guessing it is not a permission issue.
Also i didnot create the user, it was already created.
This is because you don't have FILE privilege. Refer to mysql manual
The FILE privilege gives you permission to read and write files on the server host using the LOAD DATA INFILE and SELECT ... INTO OUTFILE statements and the LOAD_FILE() function.
I'm trying to use PHPmyadmin to import a CSV file to a mysql database, however I get a 1045 error. I get the following error:
#1045 - Access denied for user 'tipsandb_saadat'#'localhost' (using password: YES)
I know that this is a rather old question but I had the same issue with mySql 5.1.61.
What I tried to do was, from a MySql client, to run the following command:
LOAD DATA INFILE '/myProjectDir/theFile.csv'
INTO TABLE someTable
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n';
I gathered information from various places, tried several options and figured out that all these points must be checked:
the user must have FILE privilege:
GRANT FILE ON *.* TO 'theUser'#'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'thePassword';
the file permissions must be set so that the world can read it (actually it shall be OK if the mysqld process is able to read it):
chmod o+r theFile.csv
the file must be located in the dedicated temporary directory that is defined in the my.cnf config file:
[mysqld]
tmpdir=/tmp/mysql
every item in the file path must have its permissions set in the same fashion as the file itself
You need the FILE privilege to use this command.
