Hi, I am just starting out with mysql. 

MySQL allows anon access so I don't have to log on to the sql just the
linu server. 

I am trying to create a test database 'test2'. I am logged on as my user
'emil' (not root) on a test linux  server. When I go to create the
database: 

mySQL> CREATE DATABASE test2; 

It gives me the following error. 

Error: 1044: Access denied for user '@localhost' for database test2

I then log in as root and change my privelages: 

mySQL>  GRANT ALL ON test2.* for emil;

But still I get the same error when I try to create it.

In fact, I can't get on to a database even if the root creates it and
then I GRANT the user 'emil' ALL to the newly created database.

Can someone direct me in the right place?   

Thanks, 

Emma
