Try to create an index manually. If the forum cannot, I'm sure you won't be able to either.

Solution is at https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/grant.html

Hi, i'm having the same problem on step 2, claiming the user doesn't have permissions to create indexes.

I have also tried granting global privileges to everything as a temporary test, and that fails too.

Here are the results of my CLI test using the user I specify in step 2 from the same server as the fudforum application installation.

I have tested creating a table, and an index from the CLI using the same user as I specified in Step 2.

mysql> create table test (testcol int);
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)

mysql> create index idx_test on test (testcol);
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)
Records: 0  Duplicates: 0  Warnings: 0

I would post a link to my screenshot from phpmyadmin showing the privileges set on the fudforum user but i'm a new user and cannot submit links until I post 2 more messages.

I admit I know very little about manually manipulating databases and am not sure my CLI test succeeded or not since it says 0 rows were affected however the query didn't error or report a permissions issue.

Does anyone have any insight into this issue, please? Much appreciated... I apologize for my ignorance.

Hi,

same problem here. I (and my provider) assume the problem is MySQL 5.7. MySQL 5.6 works.

Please forum admin check this. Thank you Smile

Thanks Avi30,

I'd prefer to use the latest version of MySQL too but I can install another instance of 5.6 just for the proof of concept. However if we decide to take this into production we'll need it to work with MySQL 5.7.

Please forum admins, bumping this issue...

Here is a screenshot from phpmyadmin for the user privileges
