mariadb mysql Compatibility issue GRANT ALL ON database.* TO 'user';
mysql -p
create database aleX;
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
create USER 'aleX'@'localhost';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
SET PASSWORD FOR 'aleX'@'localhost' = PASSWORD('7!d6b4c40cd');
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
GRANT ALL ON aleX.* TO 'aleX';
ERROR 1133 (28000): Can't find any matching row in the user table
GRANT ALL ON aleX.* TO 'aleX'; worked just fine on mysql
mysql -p
create database aleX;
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
create USER 'aleX'@'localhost';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
SET PASSWORD FOR 'aleX'@'localhost' = PASSWORD('7!d6b4c40cd');
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
GRANT ALL ON aleX.* TO 'aleX';

GRANT ALL ON aleX.* TO 'aleX'; worked just fine on mysql
aleX@localhost is not the same user as aleX.
GRANT ALL ON aleX.* TO 'aleX'@'localhost' should work.
This works the same on MySQL and MariaDB.
If it worked this way, exactly as you have shown, on MySQL, then there would have been a non-localhost user of the same name in the users table.
GRANT ALL on aleX.* to 'aleX'@'localhost';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
I hope switching will not break CMS systems designed to run on LAMP.
Well, as noted above, there is no difference in this between MySQL and MariaDB. So if it works with 'aleX' on one but not the other, that is only because one has a MySQL 'aleX' user and the other does not.
Remember, the MySQL/MariaDB user names have nothing to do with system users of the same name. And 'username' is not the same user as 'username@localhost'.
Good luck!
