CSV export issue

    I love the idea of this plugin, and it’s been great not having to log into phpmyadmin.
    While trying out the CSV export function, I encountered the follow message:

    Unable to create temporary export file:
    /tmp/tabulate_56f2c42446b46.csv

    Debug info:

    Error was: Access denied for user ‘db_user’@’localhost’ (using password: YES)

    I saw an earlier posting that mentioned a similar problem among other, but it wasn’t clear if this issue was addressed in any way. Hoping there’s a simple/quick fix for it.

    I’m sorry for your troubles! Thanks for your nice words about Tabulate.

    I think your issue is a common one, and hopefully quite easy to fix; there’s an item in the FAQ about it.

    The thing is, your database user needs to have the FILE privilege in order for the temporary CSV file to be written to the server before you can download it.

    So something like GRANT FILE ON *.* to db_user@localhost should fix it.
