The second I have created a second database "badone" and want that to = be accessible to a user called baddude. Only everytime that I try to connect via DBI call with a perl script = from the web it gives me the error that the file doesn't exist: Error:Can't find file: 'email_info.frm' (errno: 2) bash-2.02$ perror 2 No such file or directory Running a perror from the command line I found that error meant that the = file doesn't exist but that's not true at all: drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Mar 25 10:08 . drwxr-xr-x 6 root wheel 512 Mar 25 10:14 .. * rw-rw---- 1 root wheel 0 Mar 25 10:08 email_info.ISD * rw-rw---- 1 root wheel 1024 Mar 25 10:08 email_info.ISM * rw-rw---- 1 root wheel 8692 Mar 25 10:08 email_info.frm >From the command line I can connect without a problem: bash-2.02$ mysql -h test.hanzo.net -u baddude badone Welcome to the MySQL monitor.
