Package: mysql-server-4.1 Version: 4.1.11a-4sarge7 Severity: normal Creating a database "useraccdb", and a user "useracc", wishing to grant all privileges to the user "useracc" for the database "useraccdb" and any of its tables, the `User` entry in the mysql.db table gets truncated, and shows only "userac" (note the missing c at the end).
How to repeat (as "root" user in mysql): create database useraccdb; insert into user (host, user, password) values ('localhost', 'useracc', password('SECRET')); grant all on useraccdb.* to useracc; select * from db; This will show something like: /../ | % | useraccdb | userac | Y | Y | Y /../ ...which is incorrect, it should show "useracc", not "userac". Curious as to whether you get the same results.
