Blog2Social seems to have no permission to write in your WordPress database

Hello,

thank you for reaching out. It seems, that plugins like Blog2Social have no permission to write in your WordPress database. Your active WP-DB user has no rights to create new database tables.

When installing WordPress you need the ability to create MySQL databases to create a database for WordPress on your web server. If you are using a hosting provider, you may already have a WordPress database set up for you, or there may be an automated setup solution to do so.

Please make sure, you install Blog2Social as an admin user. Only Administrators of single site installations have the following capabilities. In Multisite, only the Super Admin has these abilities: install_plugins upload_plugins.

I suspect you’re probably using some security plugin that prevents the plugin from saving settings in the database. Can you try to temporary disable it and see if it helps?

Best regards
Blog2Social Support

Thanks,
I’ve figured out. I had problem with “be sure your site is reachable”, so I reinstalled plugin, but when activating I had this error ” no permissions”. I gave all rights (777) to directory in var/lib/mysql/wordpress_database/ but it didn’t help. I’ve turned wp_debug to true and then it said that there wasn’t table b2s_user, b2s_user_contact and so on. But it did show up in mysql, but when I tried to select smth from it it said that no table in engine exists. Turned out that I should manually delete all tables refered to blog2social, then restart mysql and then everything worked.

But I still can’t figure out what rights for var/lib/mysql/wordpress_database are enough because by default they are drwx——, but thats obviously not enough. What should i set it for? Because leaving it with 777 isn’t a very good thing I guess.
