Again, I'm not seeing a direct solution in that document to which I was referred.
I tried a couple and they didn't seem to be supported or help.
Is there something that I can use (SQL or Linux command line) to address the above problem on my server?
I posted a thread on the Plesk forum, since it's a Plesk server, and mostly got insults.
Please.
Peace, Gene
This request occured 7 months ago, but the answer still may be usefull for anybody encountering the same issue. I personnaly had the same message when I tried to create a view that relied on other views that did not exist in the schema or which definer user was not recognised by Mariadb. The solution is quite obvious: 1) Ensure that the definer user exists in your database. Create him if needed and do not forget to flush privileges. 2) Create or alter the dependances views with the correct definer user. 3) Create or alter the view for which the message occured with the correct definer user.
Sorry for Gene. I hope he found a solution by himself.
