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

Question

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)

Answer 1

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';
