You can quit the MySQL/MariaDB CLI by typing quit.

So considering we don't have PhpMyAdmin access, we will need to import a database via the command line. Essentially telling the system to refresh everything it currently knows about its current users and their privileges.Ĭhances are, if you're creating a database you probably don't want it to be empty.

Once arnold is created we will need to set some ground rules about how arnold is allowed to interact with the t800 database.
#Phpmyadmin create database generator
I strongly suggest you use a password generator to help out with this. The IDENTIFIED BY part lets us set a password for our user.We provide to the CREATE USER statement as a means of telling the system that we want to create a user whose name is arnold and who can only connect from the same server he is on, i.e.Type '\c' to clear the current input statement.Īll databases need their own user so we create one like so:ĬREATE USER IDENTIFIED BY 'dAs2WnZD^j3D1Nxpu%ES' Server version: 10.1.41-MariaDB-0+deb9u1 Debian 9.9Ĭopyright (c) 2000, 2018, Oracle, MariaDB Corporation Ab and others. What you should see after running the command in the step above is a variation of the following: As mentioned before if MySQL is using a port other than the default 3306 you will need to provide the command with that port by adding -port= followed by the port number.-p - tells the command to prompt us for a password after we run it.-u root - tells the mysql command which user to log into MySQL CLI with, in my case I'll be using root.mysql - tells the server we want to log into MySQL's CLI.MySQL typically uses 3306 by default but always best to check to avoid mishaps.Īfter you access the server you must get yourself into MySQL's own command line interface (CLI). And as pointed out by Ben Sinclair, you may also need to know which port you have to connect on.Either the MySQL root username and password or a MySQL user with the ability to CREATE, INSERT, RELOAD and ALTER inside the MySQL command line interface (CLI).Good news is that this is the only circle you can actually leave and redeem yourself. This is the 10th circle of hell dedicated to sysadmins and unlucky souls who just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. Sometimes you may find that you have to create a MySQL/MariaDB database without the use of a nice GUI provided by PhpMyAdmin.
