Hi folks, I have little troubles with my MySQL, I have never seen it and I cannot google it. If I set some MySQL user access from host "%" he cannot log in from localhost. MySQL version is 5.0.37, Fedora 7. Is it exist some another wildcart which includes all and localhost? or is it some option which enables that "%" includes localhost too? Thanks all Tom
Well you could always just make another "user" for localhost which is identified by the same password. Then that will pretty much cover it all...odd though that the wildcard wouldn't cover localhost, though adding the second entry should work. Thanks.
It works Yes, this works but I am confused why % doesn't include localhost. When I check runnig proccesses there is host localhost. It could be, that my local access skip TCP connection??? Tom

Hmmm, that is puzzling, have you tried connecting from 127.0.0.1, maybe it just doesn't like the fact that that's a hostname *shrug* I'll have to look into this a little. Thanks.
Idea Could be in my /etc/hosts? Code: # Do not remove the following line, or various programs # that require network functionality will fail. 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost golias 195.47.7.1 golias.domain.cz ::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
Can you try and move the golias to the 195.47.7.1 line in /etc/hosts? Also, did you restart MySQL or run a Code: FLUSH PRIVILEGES; after your changes to the mysql.user table?
Bad news Hi Falko, I tried this change Code: # Do not remove the following line, or various programs # that require network functionality will fail. 127.0.0.1 localhost 195.47.7.1 golias.domain.cz golias ::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6 bad it doesn't work I tried restart whole server bad nothing happed. Before save it asked me that there is hardlink ... a didn't brake it. Tom
Hi Falko, I tried it yesterday, but I wasn't sure .... I have placed it back, but same result .... % doesn't include localhost I'm very desperate
I'm always having one record for localhost and one record for % in my mysql.user table. Try to add a seperate record for localhost.
Hi Falko, this configuration works I tried it at first, but all previous installations of MySQL run with only one row and this row include localhost. Do you mean, that have two rows is right way? Tom
