unable to install from source 1.26.5

[Basildane]

I am stuck on an error from zmupdate.pl

Code: Select all

mysqldump: Got error: 1044: Access denied for user 'zm'@'localhost' to database 'zm' when using LOCK TABLES

I tried zmupdate.pl -u zm -p zm, but that didn't help.
zm/zm are what I have listed as the db user and password according to my old zm.conf.
I tried admin/admin too, same error.

I am compiling from source, Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.
I had no problem compiling from source for 1.26.4.

nevermind.
Found on another forum: zmupdate.pl --user=root --pass=

That worked.

You need to add the "Lock Tables" permission to your mysql user "zm".
The documentation has been updated to reflect this.

This feature was added to prevent one's Config tables from getting corrupted.

Thanks, I will do that.
I guess you have to know these things when you're king.

I might even know the unladen velocity of a swallow too.... both African and European.

But, in all seriousness, I didn't realize we pushed the Lock Tables requirement out for 1.26.5. Until I read your post, I thought it was slated for the next release.
