Re: Newbie - Please help with createing database
Hey, Thanks for replying. I login with username root and a password I set in the ensim control panel, it works perfectly. I dont really know if I am in the mysql database...but there are a couple of tables or dbs there... What id are you using to create the table? I guess root, coz thats what I login withnot really sure what id is. I do think its a permissions issue...but I dont want to touch any settings till I hear from someone who knows about this as I know squat. - Let us know what type of OS do you have this on. First guesses are persmissionsHave you set the permissions properly on the data directory for mysql? And what user is running mysql currently? When you started it, if *NIX, you should have supplied a user, i.e. bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql This would mean that the mysql user would have to exist and have all rights to the data directory. hth Jeff - Cheers, -Ryan * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * I'm not an expert (by any means) but are you in the mysql database when you're trying to create the new db? If so that might be the reason. What id are you using to create the table? Does this ID have the appropriate permissions to create the db? James . Hi, After 4 hours I am finally seeing a bit of results...am a newbie in MySql and have just been able to setup PHPMyAdmin, after loggin in I see the database MySql and 6 tables: columns_priv db func host tables_priv user I then tried to create a database and it gives me this error Error SQL-query : CREATE DATABASE `test1` MySQL said: Can't create database 'test1'.

Re: Newbie - Please help with createing database
Hey James, Thanks for replying. How do you like ensim? Pretty good, quite easy to use...Got it free with my hosting so no complaints. BTW - I use the CLI(command line interface) and connect using the mysql CLI: Ok, tried it via CLI and heres the output # mysql -u root -p Enter password: Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MySQL connection id is 246 to server version: 3.23.58 Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer. mysql show databases; ++ | Database | ++ | admin_appl | | mysql | | test | ++ 3 rows in set (0.00 sec) mysql create database test1; ERROR 1006: Can't create database 'test1'. (errno: 13) Your problems may lie in the configuration; however the fact that you can see your mysql database with tables seems to indicate that you are communicating properly. Sounds goodbut still not working :-( Any other ideas?
