| Unable to manage user accounts through MySQL Administrator 1.2.8. I've found that I'm not the only one with this problem but no one seems to have an answer for it. The problem is that when you select a user in the user list of the prog the user's detail don't appear on the right side so that they can be edited. If I right click on the user in the list then the only enabled options are Add, Refresh and Show Hosts. If I add a user, there's nothing else I can do it. The new user shows up in the list but I can't modify it or delete it. I'm logged in a root. I don't know what else to do. Any thoughts? |

| I don't have any way of selecting a host. I only have one host on my system and I don't see anything in the program that explicitly shows me where to select the host. >>> Igor Alexandrov <alexandrov@tversu.ru> 1/17/07 9:30 PM >>> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Ed Reed wrote: > Unable to manage user accounts through MySQL Administrator 1.2.8.

| Are you working on a Mac? If so, logging in as root is not good enough. You must have set up and log into the root user account of your Mac computer or server. This, if anything is a Apple problem and advantage. The Administrator is opening to the account you are in, the login in window will accept any correct password combination under ShadowHash or other authorising protocol, but you will still be working in the account you are in with those privileges.

| Thanks for the reply Daniel, This is not on a Mac. I'm running MySQL Administrator 1.2.8 on a XP/SP2 machine and I'm connecting to a MySQL 5.1.9 server running on Netware6.5. - Still looking for help. >>> Daniel Culver <culver@rapidcable.com> 1/19/07 9:52 AM >>> Are you working on a Mac?

MySQL Administrator does not in any way allow you to login to a host with a shell account, root or otherwise. -- Kevin. |

| Actually on my Mac; 10.4.6 ppc the MySQL Administrator will only open to a connection through localhost. The localhost connection will accept any authorised user to connect, but, MySQL Administrator will only assume the privileges of the account I am working from (I have several). It has been this way for a couple of years and through a few upgrades; it very well could be that I have something configured or installed wrong. What do you think?

| Dear all, I exactly have the same problem as Ed Reed. I can add new users but I'm unable to edit them afterwards. I'm using Mysql 6.0.3 and Mysql Administrator 1.2.12. Mysql 6.0.3 running on a Windows 2003 Server machine. Mysql Administrator 1.2.12 running on Vista x32 Ultimate. Do you have any further suggestions or did you already solve the problem (if yes, how?)? Thank you and br Thomas |
