Let MySQL users create databases, but allow access to only their own databases
- by eikes
I want to have multiple a MySQL users to be able to issue commands like
CREATE DATABASE dbTest;
But I also want each of these users to be able to see and access only their own databases.
All I could find was how to either create the databases by a DBA and grant the privileges on this database to the specific user:
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON dbTest.* TO 'user';
or grant privileges on all databases to a user:
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'user';
But neither is what I want, because it needs to scale and be secure.
