I got some problems upgrading from 16.1 to 17.0.
I'm using a shared MySQL database, running on WAMP.
My MySQL is version 5.0.51b.
I have closed all instances of Kodi, so nothing should be using the database.
I open Kodi on my Windows 10 PC, and i see the upgrading messages on the start screen.
After a while, it goes to the Kodi menu, but it says i have no media.
If i check my databases with phpmyadmin, i can see that myvideos99 has 34 tables, but myvideos107 only has 30.
I have tried dropping the 107 database and restarting the process, but it's the same result.
What's going wrong, and how do i correct it?
Kodi is the best HTPC software i know.

Ahh, that sounds right!
I did switch from a xbmc user to m3dia last year.
Hmm, is it possible to get this working without granting ALL permissions to the MySQL server?
What is specifically needed for the user?

Not sure, but suspect you'll need to grant most privileges as your user will be creating new databases, views, indexes, triggers.

My phpmyadmin is not the same as the one in the link, i don't have that option for SUPER.
Should i run this query then?
GRANT SUPER ON `myvideos%`.* TO 'm3dia'

I think you need "create" under global privileges as well as you will be creating a new myvideos database

Easiest would be "check all" in global, save, start Kodi and let it update the database, once updated and workin go back in and remove the global privileges
