MariaDB Error 1410: User Creation with GRANT Denied
Description
This error occurs when a user attempts to create a new MariaDB account and simultaneously assign privileges using the `GRANT` clause within the `CREATE USER` statement. It indicates that the operation failed, often due to insufficient permissions of the executing user or an incorrect command structure for the server version.
Error Message
You are not allowed to create a user with GRANT
Known Causes
3 known causesInsufficient User Privileges
The MariaDB user attempting to execute the `CREATE USER ... WITH GRANT` command lacks the necessary `CREATE USER` privilege or the `GRANT OPTION` privilege to assign other privileges simultaneously.
Attempting to Grant Unowned Privileges
The executing user is trying to grant specific privileges (e.g., `SELECT`, `INSERT`) to the new user that they themselves do not possess on the target database objects.
Incorrect Command Structure
The `CREATE USER ... WITH GRANT` syntax might be incorrectly formed, or the specific combination of operations is not supported or allowed in the current MariaDB server version or configuration.
