Hi there,

I am wondering if you hit the correct mailing list ?

This having said, you can create a user specific crontab and execute your job in there. If you are using the mysql command line use, the -u and -p parametes in your cronjob spec.

Hi all,

Does anyone here know if it is possible to specify which database user and
password my Cron Job will use when accessing a MySQL database.

My code accesses the My SQL database in question from a PHP page, which contains defines to specify the database user and password to use; when I
navigate to the page in question using a browser, the code executes as
expected.

However, when I execute the page as a Cron Job, the page fails (I see this in the email report the server sends me) with error messages that would suggest that the Cron Job is trying to use the root account with no password
to access the database.

How do I specify which database account my Cron Job should use?


Cheers,
Paul
