Deleting databases
We can delete an entire database (including all its tables) by going to the
Databases
page in
Server
view, selecting the checkbox beside the unwanted database and
clicking on the
Drop
link:
By default,
$cfg['AllowUserDropDatabase']
is set to
FALSE
. So, this panel does not
permit unprivileged users to drop a database until this setting is manually changed
to
TRUE
.
To help us think twice, a special message—
You
are
about
to
DESTROY
a
complete
database!
—appears before a database is deleted.
The database
mysql
, containing all user and privilege
definitions, is highly important. Therefore, the checkbox is
deactivated for this database, even for administrators.
