Topic: MYSQL - Can't drop user(s)

[Teviot]

Hi Guys

I am still learning SME Server, Linux and Mysql.  I using MYPHPADMIN v 2.8.2 with MYQSL v4.1.20.  I am having trouble dropping user that aren't needed any more.  The error I get is

Error
SQL query:

DROP USER 'joomla'@ 'localhost';



MySQL said:  

#1268 - Can't drop one or more of the requested users

Can anyone help me ?

Go into the MySQL database.

Select the user table.

Select Browse tab and delete the unwanted user.

Go to Privileges and reload the privileges.

I only had the same problem first time this week.

I might ask on the MySQL/PMA forums as to why.
