lightningstrike Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 phpMyAdmin uses an account that has access to all of your databases. If you are not on a shared server you should be able to use the same account to do such as well. just use mysql_list_dbs([$link]) Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/63303-show-all-databases-on-your-server-even-if-they-have-diff-users/#findComment-315521 Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaliza Posted August 4, 2007 Author Share Posted August 4, 2007 but what im trying to do , is display all databases on my shared server, and the databases have 3 different users, how do i get that account that accesses all 3, with out just using 1 user for all 3? i wanna make a script so when u load the page it list all the dbs and then u can click on the one u wanna edit or monitor phpMyAdmin uses an account that has access to all of your databases.

lightningstrike Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 Not possible, make one user for all three. The only other solution is to use all three users to find the database for each one.

dbo Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 Yeah, that's how you gotta due it. This is a security feature in MySQL and no way to show a database if the user doesn't have privileges to know its there.

dbo Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 Yes. Depending on who you log in as.... their permissions are what you can see.
