No tables shown on connection

[peterlaursen]

If you understand, that you must “unfold” the browser tree by clicking the “+” with the mouse, it sounds pretty strange!

I doubt this is an issue with SQLyog. Did you try other clients ? “MySQL Administrator” or “MySQL Query Browser” for instance ?

1)

Try pressing the “refresh”-button after connection is established (it's the one with the “recycle”-symbol)

2)

Also try issuing this SQL from the SQL-pane in SQLyog “show tables from my_db” with one of the blank databases as “my_db”` Do you get any eror message with that ?

I believe he does not have permission for the other databases.

Thanks for the quick reply

Yes I had tried to expand the + sign. Tables do appear for the one databse and not for all the others though the + signs are shown for all of them.

I tried refreshing – no luck

I tried “show tables” No error, just ” 0 rows returned”

I checked permissions in Linux, they are exactly the same for all the databases.

When I try to select the database from the dropdown list just below the menu bar, I get

Error 1044 “Access denied for user: root@ to database 'dbname'”

Any suggestions?

Thanks
