MYSQL into outfile "access denied" - but my user has "ALL" access.. and the folder is CHMOD 777

Any ideas?

SELECT * INTO OUTFILE '/home/myacnt/docs/mysqlCSVtest.csv'
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '*'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n'
FROM tbl_property 
WHERE managerGroupID = {$managerGroupID}

Error:

Access denied for user 'asdfsdf'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

---

Try executing this SQL command:

> grant all privileges 
  on YOUR_DATABASE.* 
  to 'asdfsdf'@'localhost' 
  identified by 'your_password';
> flush privileges; 

It seems that you are having issues with connecting to the database and not writing to the folder you’re mentioning.

Also, make sure you have granted FILE to user 'asdfsdf'@'localhost'.

> GRANT FILE ON *.* TO 'asdfsdf'@'localhost';

Honestly I didnt bother to deal with the grants and this worked even without the privileges:

echo "select * from employee" | mysql --host=HOST --port=PORT --user=UserName --password=Password DATABASE.SCHEMA > output.txt

---

As @fijaaron says,

1. GRANT ALL does not imply GRANT FILE
2. GRANT FILE only works with *.*

So do

GRANT FILE ON *.* TO user;

---

Since cP/WHM took away the ability to modify User privileges as root in PHPMyAdmin, you have to use the command line to:

mysql>  GRANT FILE ON *.* TO 'user'@'localhost';

Step 2 is to allow that user to dump a file in a specific folder. There are a few ways to do this but I ended up putting a folder in :

/home/user/tmp/db

and

chown mysql:mysql /home/user/tmp/db

That allows the mysql user to write the file. As previous posters have said, you can use the MySQL temp folder too, I don't suppose it really matters but you definitely don't want to make it 0777 permission (world-writeable) unless you want the world to see your data. There is a potential problem if you want to rinse-repeat the process as INTO OUTFILE won't work if the file exists. If your files are owned by a different user then just trying to unlink($file) won't work. If you're like me (paranoid about 0777) then you can set your target directory using:

chmod($dir,0777)

just prior to doing the SQL command, then

chmod($dir,0755)

immediately after, followed by unlink(file) to delete the file. This keeps it all running under your web user and no need to invoke the mysql user.

I tried all the solutions but it still wasn't sufficient. After some more digging I eventually found I had also to set the 'file_priv' flag, and restart mysql.

To resume :

Grant the privileges :

> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES
  ON my_database.* 
  to 'my_user'@'localhost';

> GRANT FILE ON *.* TO my_user;

> FLUSH PRIVILEGES; 

Set the flag :

> UPDATE mysql.user SET File_priv = 'Y' WHERE user='my_user' AND host='localhost';

Finally restart the mysql server:

$ sudo service mysql restart

After that, I could write into the secure_file_priv directory. For me it was /var/lib/mysql-files/, but you can check it with the following command :

> SHOW VARIABLES LIKE "secure_file_priv";

For future readers, one easy way is as follows if they wish to export in bulk using bash,

akshay@ideapad:/tmp$ mysql -u someuser -p test -e "select * from offices"
Enter password:

If you're exporting by non-root user then set permission like below

root@ideapad:/tmp# mysql -u root -p
MariaDB[(none)]> UPDATE mysql.user SET File_priv = 'Y' WHERE user='someuser' AND host='localhost';

Restart or Reload mysqld

akshay@ideapad:/tmp$ sudo su
root@ideapad:/tmp#  systemctl restart mariadb

Sample code snippet

akshay@ideapad:/tmp$ cat test.sh 
#!/usr/bin/env bash

user="someuser"
password="password"
database="test"

mysql -u"$user" -p"$password" "$database" <<EOF
SELECT * 
INTO OUTFILE '/tmp/csvs/offices.csv' 
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|' 
ENCLOSED BY '"' 
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n'
FROM offices;
EOF

Execute

akshay@ideapad:/tmp$ mkdir -p /tmp/csvs
akshay@ideapad:/tmp$ chmod +x test.sh
akshay@ideapad:/tmp$ ./test.sh 
akshay@ideapad:/tmp$ cat /tmp/csvs/offices.csv
