mysql_setpermission is a Perl script that was originally written and contributed by Luuk de Boer.
mysql_setpermission can help you add users or databases or change passwords in MariaDB. It does not check permissions which have already been set in MariaDB. So if you can't connect to MariaDB using the permission you just added, take a look at the permissions which have already been set in MariaDB.
The permission setter first reads your .my.cnf file in your Home directory if it exists.
Options for the permission setter:
Options
| --help | Display a help message and exit. |
| --host=host_name | Connect to the MariaDB server on the given host. |
| --password=password | The password to use when connecting to the server. Note that the password value is not optional for this option, unlike for other MariaDB programs Specifying a password on the command line should be considered insecure. You can use an option file to avoid giving the password on the command line. |
| --port=port_num | The TCP/IP port number to use for the connection. |
| --socket=path | For connections to localhost, the Unix socket file to use. |
| --user=user_name | The MariaDB user name to use when connecting to the server. |
