Hi

I have been using MySQLDump for years now but have a problem dumping a database on a shared server. I cannot get select access to any other database such as the MySQL database but have full access to the database I wish to dump.

How do I do this?

1. Please specify the exact text of the error(s) you are getting.
2. Tell us all non-default settings of your MySqlDump instance.
3. Give us information (version, edition, etc) about your MySQL shared server. Is it possible to create a trial account for testing your MySQL shared server?

Hi

The error message is "SELECT command denied to user 'xxx' for table 'proc'". User info replaced with xxx for post.

The host is a hosted shared Linux server and the config for MySQL is through CPanel. The user has full permissions to the database and can be accessed remotely on dev PC OK with DB tools. DB is MariaDB 10.0.28.

The dump snippet is:

Dim dbDump As MySqlDump = New MySqlDump() With {
.Connection = MySqlConnection,
.Database = DbName,
.GenerateHeader = True,
.IncludeDrop = True,
.IncludeUse = True,
.UseExtSyntax = False,
.ObjectTypes = MySqlDumpObjects.Procedures _
Or MySqlDumpObjects.Events _
Or MySqlDumpObjects.Views _
Or MySqlDumpObjects.Triggers _
Or MySqlDumpObjects.Tables _
Or MySqlDumpObjects.Functions,
.QuoteIdentifier = True,
.Mode = DumpMode.All}

dbDump.Backup()

The error is thrown as soon as the dbDump.Backup() is invoked.

I can't provide access details/trial DB as it is a live customer server.

Regards

Colin

Thank you for the additional information. We will investigate the issue and notify you about the result.

This should work if your account has an access to the database you intend to dump.

Requires an access to the "proc" table in the system "mysql" database which stores the corresponding information.

capt_henry wrote: .ObjectTypes = MySqlDumpObjects.Events,

Requires an access to the "event" table in the system "mysql" database.

Could you please ask your database administrator to grant a SELECT privilege on the "proc" and "event" tables in the system "mysql" database to your account?

Thank you I will do that.
