    mysql> show databases;
    +--------------------+
    | Database           |
    +--------------------+
    | information_schema |
    
    | mifos              |
    
    | mysql              | 
    +--------------------+

    mysql> GRANT ALL on mifos.* to 'mifos'@'localhost' identified by 'mifos';
    mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
    
  • test database connection as user 'mifos'
    No Format
    mysql -u mifos -pmifos mifos
