MySQL permission and root password reset
Posted: Mon Nov 25, 2013 7:46 pm
Manzar and Ken came to me today and asked me to import iportal sql file.
I created a new schema named iportal and import the sql file by the following command:
It had errors during the attempts.
So, I created a new user admin/4dm1n for it.
NOTICE: mysql user is like root user and has all privileges.
However, the import process got stuck:
I was trying to grant admin user all privileges to iportal.* but it kept complaining access denied.
It looks like I had to use root user to grant privileges. However, I forgot the root's password so I had to reset its password. Good thing is, mysql user has all privileges and I was able to reset root user's password.
After resetting root's password, I was able to log in as root and grant privileges to admin user on iportal.*.
I then tried to import the sql again but this time it stopped at 5807 (total is 5850) with the following error:
It looks like it is trying to import into callcenter schema that did not exist.
So I created another schema named "callcenter" and but it stopped at the same spot again.
I then realized that I was still trying to import into iportal schema. I changed to callcenter schema and tried the import again. It complained again:
I had to grant privilege to callcenter.* for admin user.
I then tried again and this time, it complained about another new schema:
I then created a new schema "inventory" and granted necessary privileges to admin user:
I created a new schema named iportal and import the sql file by the following command:
