Are you connecting with root? If not, please connect with root, edit the other user, click ok (save). Now try connecting with that user. Did that fix it?

Are you connected with root? Is MySQL running on Windows or a Unix based system?

Could you please direct message me with a screen shot of File->My Data Source Information.

Can't wait to get this resolved once and for all.

Je suis connecté avec un compte non-root avec toutes les permissions sur la base de données. Je vois que RDM ajoute des données dans les tables mais je n'ai pas l'option "newEntry" de disponible.

Une information manquante, le serveur Mysql est comme ceci:

Server version: 5.1.57
Centos

Was the user "rdm" created by manually or through the RDM admin screen?

Can you send me, via private message, the result of the following query, I suspect that the table is empty?

SELECT * FROM UserInfo;

If the result is indeed empty, change your data source connection to use the root user. Save, now got to the user admin screen (Administration -> Users), and add the user "rdm", make sure you mark it as "Administrator" this will populate the UserInfo table with the appropriate rights. Now change the data source to use the "rdm" user. All should be ok now.

The solution works for now. What is the difference between mysql user created by RDM and mine?

The only difference I can see is : "reload privilege" as global privilege

it has the access privileges/rights that govern RDM security settigs (add, edit, new...), hence the UserInfo table within the RDM schema.

As for the "reload privilege" it's needed since when you are admin of RDM you can create/delete users. When doing so reloading the privileges is required in some cases.
