If you look at the users table, is there a password hash in the password field? i think this must be reload?? not just flush?? it happen to me.. or perhaps need some times to realy reload??

FLUSH PRIVILEGES to do the step 4. But the step 5 really does not work... only on the shell or when I remove the password from the user...

Here's my sequence of actions: . 1) Create DB if it doesn't exist 2) Create the user w/password 3) Give the user permission to use the database. 4) Flush privileges to update the server. 5) login and enjoy. -Micah Roberto F Tavares Neto wrote: Hello, I'm trying to do a very simple thing: create a database and a user to use it. So, initially, I use the web interface phpmyadmin. Logged as root, I created the database, and the user with some password. But, I could not login using phpmyadmin. Either any php-based system could connect to the BD. So, I make sure that I got the "user@localhost" and "user@%" created, with permissions and same password. Nothing. But I *can* log on mysql shell. One more info: when the user is set without password, it works fine on PHP. Does anyone can give me a clue of what is happening? Thanks!
