Title: [SOLVED] error 1044: Access denied for ... root ... when using LOCK TABLES
Post by: LANMonkey on December 11, 2014, 11:17:54 PM
I have two symptoms that I suspect are related to mysql.

First, when I try to do a backup, I am getting the following error in the Messages log:

<Date, host> esmith::event[3611]: mysqldump: Got error: 1044: Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' to database 'information_schema' when using LOCK TABLES

And also, I can't find my filters in webmail.  The connection here is just something I think I heard.

I don't see anything in the bugs or posted elsewhere.  Anyone have any idea what is going on?

did you change root's password in mysql?

in any case, bugzilla is right there, use it, thank you

Google on "'information_schema' when using LOCK TABLES" and it will give you an idea on what to log into bugzilla.

The thread where this fix exists concerns installing a more advanced version of MySQL then is shipped with SME 8.  My version of MySQL is 5.5.33.  I don't think it qualifies as a bug.  I have already requested that SME start using a more advanced version of MySQL.
