Submitted: 5 Oct 2005 22:02 Modified: 18 Oct 2005 11:48
Reporter: Markus Popp
Status: Closed
Category:Server Severity:S3 (Non-critical)

Assigned to: Sergey Gluhov Target Version:

Description:
The command mysqlcheck --all-databases --analyze --optimize fails, because it also tries
to analyze and optimize the information_schema tables, which it can't.

How to repeat:
E:\>mysqlcheck --all-databases --analyze --optimize -u root
Enter password: *******
mysqlcheck: Got error: 1044: Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' to
database 'information_schema' when executing 'OPTIMIZE TABLE ... '

E:\mysql_dump>

Suggested fix:
information_schema should be excluded from this command.

This Bug is still open in the sources for 5.0.15. Will you include this patch in the next
version (5.0.16)?

5.0.15 Standard for OS X does not fix this (non-installer version).

The actual fix was indeed in 5.0.16 only, not 5.0.15
