Whenever SER is started, either through serctl or the command line, the following error is logged. The Sys Admin for this server says that the MySQL database permissions are set correctly however these permissions are different than the MySQL users permissions. The user permissions do not permit access to ser or serro from the localhost or anyhost, the MySQL database does.

I think this is the case of the access error listed below however issuing the MySQL GRANT command to update the user permissions has no affect, the command is accepted but 0 rows are changed.

I have not seen this with SER on other OS's. This is my first attempt with Redhat. Does anyone have any insight into what is happening?

The MySQL root, ser and serro passwords are all correct and we can use MySQL command line tools to access the database using these usernames and passwords.

We are running MySQL 4.0.20.

Thanks,Steve
