mysql 1133_MySQL错误＃1133-在用户表中找不到任何匹配的行

Unable to set password for a user using 3.5.2.2 - phpMyAdmin for 5.5.27 - MySQL. When trying to set the password while logged onto phpMyAdmin as the user, it pops up the following error:

#1133 - Can't find any matching row in the user table

When logged on as root, following password set successfully message pops up.

SET PASSWORD FOR 'user'@'%' = PASSWORD( '***' )

In either case, password does not set and stays as it currently is, blank.

解决方案

It turns out, the error is very vague indeed!

1) Password was setting while logged on as root, as it was updating the user/password field in the users table under MySql.

2) When logged on as user, password was in fact not changing and even though there was one specified in the users table in MySql, config.inc.php file allowed authentication without password.

Solution:

Change following value to false in the config.inc.php.

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword'] = true;

So that it reads

$cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword'] = false;

Change user's host from Any or % to localhost in MySql users table. This could easily be achieved via phpMyAdmin console.

These two changes allowed me to authenticate as user with it's password and disallowed authentication without password.

It also allowed user to change its password while logged on as user.

Seems all permissions and the rest was fixed with these two changes.
