I tried to list all databases by running this command
mysql> show databases;
and got below error:-
ERROR 1449 (HY000): The user specified as a definer ('mysql.infoschema'@'localhost') does not exist
then I tried to create user
mysql> create user 'mysql.infoschema'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
got below error:-
ERROR 1726 (HY000): Storage engine 'MyISAM' does not support system tables. [mysql.user]
to solve this issue I run mysqld --upgrade=FORCE but got error
[ERROR] [MY-010123] [Server] Fatal error: Please read "Security" section of the manual to find out how to run mysqld as root!
then I run mysqld --user=root it worked . but no any output message
still I could not list all databases or connect the mysql server using dbeaver-cs tool. All the sites are up and running without any issue.
mysql Ver 8.0.26 for Linux on x86_64 (Source distribution)
OS- centos
CodePudding user response：
Usually the problem might be in the mysql database when doing a migration or backup.
You should not take any of information_schema, mysql,sys and performance_schema databases when you backing up the db.
If the users are important you can insert it.
Take a dump of users table of mysql database from the older server.
You will find maybe 4 default users on the fresh server, those users you should remove from the insert statement.
Then copy the insert statement form the dump, use mysql on the fresh server database and insert it.
If the fresh server is MySQL 8 and the older one is 5.xx you will find missing columns just add it on the insert statement as empty columns. Last 6 columns you should add on the insert.
Mysql 8
mysql> desc user;
