Re: Can't seem to create a new user account

Hi David,

There has been bug raised for the same. Please see the below url for more details:

http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=28331

The possible solution for this error would be query mysql.user table and see if the user exists.

Select *
from mysql.user
where user = 'username';

second solution would be to use flush privileges; and try the statement once again.

Let me know if this helps.

Regards,
Vinod
