What does the MySQL error message mean?

The MySQL Server (mysqld process) can, for whatever reason, NOT create a schema/database.

Additional information you can get as follows:
```
shell> perror 13
OS error code  13:  Permission denied
```
When does this MySQL error message happen?

This MySQL error usually happens when the MySQL data directory (datadir) does not belong to the user under which the mysqld process runs. For example the data directory belongs to the user root and the mysqld process runs as user mysql.

How to fix this MySQL error?

If the MySQL data directory does not belong to the user the mysqld process is running under, you can fix this for example as follows:
```
shell> sudo su -
shell> cd /var/lib
shell> chown -R mysql:mysql mysql
```
Alternatively you can start the mysqld process as follows:
```
shell> bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql
```
or set the user accordingly in your my.cnf file.
```
# my.cnf
[mysqld]
user = mysql
```
```
Error: 1007 SQLSTATE: HY000 (ER_DB_CREATE_EXISTS)
Message: Can't create database '%s'; database exists
```
How does the MySQL error message look like?
```
mysql> CREATE SCHEMA test;
ERROR 1007 (HY000): Can't create database 'test'; database exists
```
What does the MySQL error message mean?

MySQL (the mysqld process) can, for whatever reason NOT create a schema/database.

When does this MySQL error message happen?

This MySQL error appears, as the error message states, when the database already exists.

How to fix this MySQL error?

You have 2 possibilities:
1. Choose an other name for your new database / schema.
2. Drop your old database / schema.
3. Rename your old database / schema (we can provide you more information, how to do this).
Error: 1008 SQLSTATE: HY000 (ER_DB_DROP_EXISTS)

How does the MySQL error message look like?
```
mysql> CREATE DATABASE test;
ERROR 13 (HY000): Can't get stat of './test' (Errcode: 13)
```
What does the MySQL error message mean?

As you can see with the perror command:
```
shell> perror 13
OS error code  13:  Permission denied
```
the mysqld process has not rights to write to the datadir (typically /var/lib/mysql/data) directory.

When does this MySQL error message happen?

This usually happens when you mix the usage of the user root and the database user (typically mysql). Often a directory is created with a user (root) which does not allow an other user (mysql) to access its files or directories.

How to fix this MySQL error?

Keep both roles (root and mysql) strictly separated.
If you are already in this situation you have to change the directory permissions:
```
shell> sudo su -
shell> cd /var/lib/mysql
shell> chown -R mysql:mysql data
```
