Just came across this thread.
im installing wp on fasthosts and according to their documentation i cannot grant ALL permissions. Are the following that they do allow sufficient?
Using the SSH command-line, you can grant the following permissions to MySQL database users on our shared hosting platform:
ALTER
CREATE
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES
DELETE
DROP
INDEX
INSERT
LOCK TABLES
SELECT
UPDATE
The permissions that you cannot grant are:
ALL
FILE
PROCESS
RELOAD
SHOW DATABASES
Thanks
