“拒绝用户'test'@'％'访问数据库'test'

Question

I have been trying to access the remote MySql database server in C# Entity framework but end in following error

{"Access denied for user 'test'@'%' to database 'test'"}

My connection string is server='192.168.0.1';uid=test;database=test;password=1234

However if i access the database through workbench it allows me to access the server and inserting and deleting the data in tables.

What causing the error ?

Answer 1

Execute below statement to grant access on test-

GRANT all privileges on test.* to test@'%' identified by '1234';

Note: You can change all privileges with your specific permissions.

You can also assign rights on all databases by-

GRANT all privileges on *.* to test@'%' identified by '1234';

Note: Best way is that rights should provide only to specific ip and limited rights as per requirement.
