I ./add_database.sh: line 47: /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql -u root -h localhost -p’wbzd’ -e “GRANT select,insert ON lijun.* TO lijun@192.168.1.31 IDENTIFIED BY ‘lijun’;”: No such file or directory
I replacing /usr/bin/mysql with /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql,but the same
I used: /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql -h localhost -u root -p’wbzd’ it’s ok
Your mysql path is wrong, try replacing /usr/bin/mysql with /usr/local/bin/mysql or find the propper path of mysql cmd.
Nice script .
thinks it’s simple and very nice lol
Hello I tried this script but got the below password. Pls how can i correct this. I have been trying to use to create databases, username and password. Thank you
********Error*****
./mysql_script_user.sh: line 46: /usr/bin/mysql -u root -h localhost -p’ctip2010′ -e “GRANT ALL ON bar.* TO tom@–debug IDENTIFIED BY ‘jerry’;”: No such file or directory
Probably, your mysql binary isn’t in /usr/bin/ try to find it:
find / -name mysql
if you have a different location, change the value in the script:
## Path to mysql bins ##
mysql=”/usr/bin/mysql”
Greetings
Thanks Vivek :)
very helpful and I learned lot of new thing by reading the code :D
