⚠️
Insufficient User Privileges
The user account attempting to run the MySQL client lacks the necessary permissions to create or access shared memory and system events.
⚠️
Shared Memory Conflicts
Another application or process is already using the required shared memory resources or event names, causing a collision with the MySQL client.
