Yes, but I don't believe it matters because the database in question is 'mysql', not the database containing my personal data. This is a snip from a comment in the MySQL example file for a UDF: I think this is what I'm encountering.

I was trying to get a MySQL user-defined function working but was getting an error that I don't have permission to access/write to the table 'mysql'. CREATE FUNCTION myfunc_double RETURNS REAL SONAME "udf_example.so" Access denied for user 'MYUSERACCOUNT'@'localhost' to database 'mysql' I believe 'mysql' is responsible for maintaining a list of available functions, and that might cause conflicts on a shared server, but I still need the functionality. I have data that really needs a custom function to prune it at the database level. Thanks for any help/info!
