Their is a nice web based admin tool for mysql: phpMyAdmin from http://sourceforge.net Regards, Dirk ----- Original Message ----- From: "Horst Wald" <horstwald@hotmail.com> To: <zope@zope.org>; <website-talk-admin@list.ora.com> Sent: Friday, January 04, 2002 1:32 PM Subject: [Zope] damn sophisticated mysql security
Hello,
MySQL is so damn secure I can't access my own database!!!
.. but only if I try to connect to the MySQL-Server on the same host like the Zope-server; I get:
Error Type: OperationalError Error Value: (1045, "Access denied for user: 'hsql@localhost' (Using password: YES)")
I can connect to a MySQL-Server on a remote machine without problems. Let's see if I understood what you have to do if you want to connect to the Database "MyDataBase", being the user "MyUser" on the local machine with the IP "195.196.197.198" using the password "MyPassWord":
1. become root 2. mysql 3. create database MyDataBase; 4. use mysql 5. insert into db values
('195.196.197.198','MyUser','MyPassWord','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y' ,'Y');
6. insert into user
values('195.196.197.198','MyUser',PASSWORD('MyPassWord'),'Y','Y','Y','Y','Y' ,'Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y');
7. flush privileges; (or even restart MySQL or even reboot the computer)
8. then (in Zope) add a ZMySQLDatabaseConnection with the connection string "MyDataBase MyUser MyPassWord", deliberately omitting the host
Any easier way? The easiest way? What I'd like best would be to disable the whole MySQL-security-stuff so I can start to work at last. I can care for security later.
Thanks in advance
Horst
