MySQL Permission - Can create tables, but not edit rows...


Recommended Posts

This is going to drive me nuts. I'm trying to set up a dev environment in which the root user will be able to access every table in every database I have. Currently, I can edit the mysql and information_scheme tables, and any tables that I have restored from a backup.

 

But every time I add a new table to any database, I can't edit any of the rows. I'm currently using the MySQL Query Browser on OS X and the "edit" button stays grayed out on any of these new tables that are created.

 

Can anyone help me walk though some troubleshooting steps so I can move forward on this?

 

Thanks!

Are you clicking on the table or on a column under the table where "edit" is grayed out?  If you want to edit the column, I think you have to do that through the table-edit.  Otherwise, you might try entering the ALTER TABLE command manually.

I'm clicking on the cell below the column header, where I should be able to enter a value.

 

I should probably also say that I have a working setup on a Mac server at work, so I'm not really sure why I can't get this to work. It's MySQL 5.0 on an Ubuntu box.

This thread is more than a year old. Please don't revive it unless you have something important to add.
