MySQL Connector/J Documentation. Error in readme?
Hi,
I'm reading the readme from MySQL Connector/J Documentation and it contains the following:
> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON [dbname].* to
> '[user]'@'[hostname]' identified by
> '[password]'
>
> replacing [dbname] with the name of your database, [user]
> with the user name, [hostname] with the host that MySQL
> Connector/J will be connecting from, and [password] with the
> password you want to use.
so I tried the following;
mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON test.* to 'tom@localhost' identified by 'toms_pw';
but this command creates a username "tom@localhost", not "tom" and thus i was getting the following error message when trying to login:
SQLException: Invalid authorization specification, message from server: "Access denied for user: 'tom@localhost' (Using password: YES)"
should the command be: (removing the apostrophe around the username)
mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON test.* to tom@localhost identified by 'toms_pw';
which creates a username "tom".
you can see the difference:
mysql> SELECT Host,User,Password FROM mysql.user;
+-----------+------------------+------------------+
| Host | User | Password |
+-----------+------------------+------------------+
| localhost | root | |
| build | root | |
| localhost | | |
| build | | |
| % | tom@localhost | 3f59413a4bbb0e0f |
| localhost | tom | 3f59413a4bbb0e0f |
+-----------+------------------+------------------+
Am I on the right track here? should the readme command be:
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON [dbname].* to
[user]'@'[hostname] identified by
'[password]'
