When I try to backup my tables using the BACKUP TABLE command, I get the message "MySQL said: Access denied for user: 'polozero@localhost' (Using password: YES)" I emailed my host but they were less than helpful, so does anyone have any suggestions?
an 'Access denied' message can only be solved by using the correct username and password on the correct databases and tables.
Your host is probably the only one who can give you the rights, so you may have to go back to them...
so are there separate permissions settings for different commands (eg backup, insert, select)? cos I can do everything else, it's just backup I have problems with.
