Need to update MariaDB Documentation for NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      As per the MariaDB doc,

      NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER : Don't automatically create users with GRANT. Produce a 1133 error: "Can't find any matching row in the user table". Default since MariaDB 10.1.7.
      https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/sql-mode/
      https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/grant/

      But we need to specify that "unless authentication information is specified. The statement must specify a nonempty password using IDENTIFIED BY or an authentication plugin using IDENTIFIED WITH"

      NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER
      Prevent the GRANT statement from automatically creating new users if it would otherwise do so, unless authentication information is specified. The statement must specify a nonempty password using IDENTIFIED BY or an authentication plugin using IDENTIFIED WITH.
