What permission is required for a MySQL user to create a database?

Question

Is it possible for a user other than root to create a database?

 GRANT SELECT, CREATE ON *.* TO \'myguy\'@\'thatmachine\' IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD \'*12057DFA2         


        

Answer 1

The password field is what that particular user's password is when logging into MySQL itself. I'm not exactly sure what you mean when you say you wonder what privileges are missing. What exactly are you trying to do?
