This tip contains a couple of MySQL scripts that allow me to create and drop a database and a user that will “own” said database.
They are accompanied by a couple of ant tasks that will allow you to replace the tokens for dbname, etc.
By themselves, the SQL scripts illustrate how you need to provide the appropriate grants (and how to clear the grants when bouncing the db from scratch.
Note: Listing 3 also runs a ficticious “schema.sql” file.
Listing 1.- Create Database and user
-- DO NOT RUN THIS FILE DIRECTLY.
-- Use the accompanying ant script to create the database.
-- Those ant scripts will set up replace the tokens for
-- dbname, dbuser and dbpassword.
CREATE DATABASE _DBNAME_;
GRANT ALL ON _DBNAME_.* TO _DBUSER_@'%' IDENTIFIED BY '_DBPASSWORD_';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES
Listing 2.- Drop Database and user
-- DO NOT RUN THIS FILE DIRECTLY.
-- Use the accompanying ant script to drop the database.
-- Those ant scripts will set up replace the tokens for
-- dbname, dbuser and dbpassword.
REVOKE ALL ON _DBNAME_.* FROM _DBUSER_;
DROP DATABASE _DBNAME_;
DROP USER _DBUSER_;
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
