HT5290 Accidentally deleted root@localhost user ?

While I was running PHPmyAdmin via MAMP I accidentally deleted root@localhost user and possible some mysql databases. Are there any default mySQL DBs in the OS and how can I reset/reinstall this data?

Solved, I uninstalled MAMP/MAMP PRO and installed XAMPP: all better!

  • Accidentally deleted "Directory Administrator" user in OSX Server (10.9.1)

    I was under Users in the OS X Server and deleted the "Directory Administrator" account that was put there after configuring "Device Management" under Profile Manager. I made a new administor account that is a local account as well but was it the same as the (DA) account? How do I to make changes to the username and password on the "Directory Administator" account? Thanks for the help.

    perhaps a bit extreme, but you can force the server to restart from a blank slate, by deleting the .ServerSetupDone file.
    sudo rm /var/db/.ServerSetupDone

  • I accidentally deleted user template folder

    Soooo, I accidentally deleted the locked User Template folder in the Mac Library. Yes, I am an idiot. Not sure why. I unlocked it thinking it was something for my Adobe Photoshop that I recently got rid of and I'm trying to free up space on my computer.
    It hasn't effected my computer YET, but I am a little afraid to turn the computer off.
    What do I need to do?
    I have a 10.7 Mac OS X Lion. It's a Macbook Air, 11', Mid-2011.

    Since applications are much smaller generally then the data is their deletion is usually not very productive. A far more productive way is to delete data files such as movies, videos, music and photos.
    How much free space do you currently have on your disk drive?

  • Deleted the main user please HELP!

    So, there I was, deleting some stuff so my laptop (HP Pavillion G6) would work faster, but then, I couldn't enter Google Chrome or the Recycle Bin. I have already deleted Internet Explorer to make room, so Chrome was all I had. Any suggestions? Please?

  • Non root user can delete root files, bug?

    We're having an odd permissions based problem on Solaris 10 u5 x86_64, (new install, fully patched as of 2 days ago) It means that non root users can delete root owned files, which is something I've never seen before, and I've been doing this for almost 10 years.
    We're installing into an 80Gb container on VMware ESX server 3.0.1. The OS takes 20Gb (2 processors, 4Gb memory, 8Gb swap) most of the remaining 60Gb is being used as both file systems and raw devices under disksuite as soft partitions. It's one of the file systems, /apps (where we plan to install sybase) that is giving us "issues"
    Essentially:
    # more /etc/vfstab |grep apps
    /dev/md/dsk/d0 /dev/md/rdsk/d0 /apps ufs 2 yes -

    It's a new "bare metal" (in as much as there is no metal) install. I created the sybase user from scratch by hand editing passwd, group and shadow, buy copying and pasting the data out of the NIS maps. All I've done besides the install & patch is setup networking manually, and created the metadb's and the soft partitions and the mount points & newfs'ed & mounted three of them . I then changed ownership of /apps to be sybase:sybase, and handed it to the database team for the sybase install. they came back and said "should we be able to do this?" as they habitually run rm rf * knowing they can't delete root owned files, only now they can... This is true even if I just chgrp the directory and give them group write permissions. They can still delete anything owned by root, even if it doesn't have group permissions just like the lost+found directory. No other "real" machine we have, x86 or SPARC does this, but we've never installed u5 before either.
    As you can imagine losing the lost+found directory is a bit of a problem, however what's really worrying me is if they can do that, what happens when they run sybase as the sybase user? If it borks can they trash the OS and write/overwrite random files?
    It's a VM, so in as much that's not a problem, but the reason it's a VM is somebody wants to send a VM to a client as a demo, and at present it's highly unstable IMO.
    Does anyone have any idea where to start? My thoughts are that it may be a VMware issue, (though the hardware and the guest OS is supported) it could be a bug, because I've never seen that weird newfs error before, and then I found this:
    http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6622243
    Or it could be me, and the fact that I'm hand configuring it, and u5 now requires I do it "properly" with useradd, etc. I'd like to test, but the guy wants it built, and wants it now, so I patched it up, and gave it back to the database team and told them to be careful.
    I'd be interested in you opinions regardless.
    The full spec of the "machine" is below, sol10 is not it's name for obvious reasons, and I've hashed out the ID & GIUD for similar reasons.

    An easy way to think of it is this -- everything in Unix is a file. Including directories; they are just a file which contains a list of the files in that directory, and pointers to them.
    If the 'sybase' user has write permission on the directory, they have permission to edit that "list", and can add or remove files to the list. It doesn't matter who the files on the list belong to, because the files are not what is being modified. Only the list of files is being modified. (Of course, in Unix, if you erase the file's listing from all of the lists it's on, the file itself goes away for housekeeping purposes.)
    One thing that would have stopped the 'sybase' user from removing the lost+found directory is if that directory itself had files in it -- without write permission to the lost+found directory, that user could not have removed those files, and since one cannot remove a non-empty directory, that operation would have failed. Since lost+found was empty in this case, it could be removed simply by having permission to write to the /apps directory.
    This behavior does change if you set the sticky bit on the directory -- in that case, files may only be removed by the owner of the file or directory, or if the user has write permission to the file. This would have prevented the sybase user from removing the lost+found directory. (Note, this also applies to the 'rename' function call.) This would probably be the best way to handle your situation, since you apparently do want the sybase user to be able to add files to /apps, but do not want them to be able to remove lost+found.

  • Accidentally deleted /private/var/root

    Hello All!
    I have accidentally deleted the directory /private/var/root/. Is there anything important in there?
    The system has recreated the directory. However, there is no .forward and no .CFUserTextEncoding file anymore. Also, there were some .GlobalPreferences.plist files that didn't reappear. I also had to reconfigure the multiple desktops in my account, which is a bit weird as this setting should not be stored in the root directory but in my user directory?
    Thanks for some inputs.

    Restore its content from your backup. Otherwise, you will need to reinstall OS X.
    Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Accidentally deleted a users keychain

    Hi,
    I accidentally deleted one of my user's keychain. I can't remember if I selected DELETE REFERENCES AND FILES or just DELETE REFERENCES. Now there are just 2 system keychains and the X509Anchors keychains, and no certificates either.
    I created a new keychain, but when trying to add passwords to it (like from Entourage for instance), it doesn't seem to take.
    Is there a way to restore the deleted keychain if I don't remember what it was called?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you

    No, that doesn't fix it because all the certificates were deleted too. I can create a new keychain, but no passwords "take" because of the missing certificates. Now I need to figure out how to recreate those....

    Help ... I've accidentally deleted all data of my user in the terminal. what to do? Can i undo the commands?
    greetings from austria

    You cannot undo commands. When you delete/remove files with the rm command the files are not put in the trash where they could be recovered. They are gone.
    You should have your system backed up with Time machine and/or backup clone of your system. Use them to recover you files.

  • I've accidentally deleted something in the Users & Groups pane and now many of my programs do not run at all!

    Hello all, I'm hoping you can help me as I have accidentally deleted something in the Users and Groups pane and I don't know how I can restore it. Because of this, items on my desktop have disappeared, my trackpad behaves much differently, and many of the programs are unresponsive. Should I consider wiping it clean (I do not have any start up discs at my disposal) and is there a way to keep my operating system (Mavericks 10.9.2)?

  • How can I access data from accidentally deleted user?

    I was given a MacBook Pro by a family member. I set myself as the Administrator, but could not get rid of the previous owner's name on the Home folder.
    In my attempts I accidentally deleted something that made the entire computer unaccessable. I can boot up, however, all the work and applications I installed are unaccessable. I can't even open Preferences.
    I used TechTool Pro to start up and explore the drive, and found that the previous owner's name was on a folder with a red-circled minus sign. The data (considerable) was inside, but I can't access it.
    Is there any way I can get access to that data? I slaved the laptop to my iMac and transferred the folder (with 32 gb of data).
    When I tried to open it I got the message: "The folder "sandy....." can't be opend because you don't have permission to see its contents." I used Get Info on the folder and changed Sharing and Permissions to Read and Write, but still no access.
    What can I do, if anything to gain access to that folder?

  • Accidentally deleted only User in Directory Utility while trying to resolve "No preference pane" issue.

    I have made a bit of, as far as I can tell at this point, a large mistake. After installing Mountain Lion from Snow Leopard, I encountered an issue where I couldn't load the Users preference pane. I attempted to resolve this with the instructions found here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4270303?start=0&tstart=0. Instead of deleting the JPEGPhoto, I used the wrong "-" button and deleted the whole user, that is the user from the lefthand pane. That user was also my administrator user, as well as only user on this computer. Now I can't go into anything really that requires Authentication, as that account and password no longer exist, and I can't reach Users and Group preferences because of the initial issue. I should also mention that I am abroad in countries without Apple Stores, so bringing my MacBook in is not an option, nor is re-installing Mac OS X as I do not have the disk and ML is downloaded from the App Store, which I now can't log into and see my purchases... How can I create an account that acts as an administrator? I'm afraid to log off or restart in the event that I can't log in into anything. Also, the user's home directory is still there, so I still have my stuff, but if I restart or anything will it be gone?

    If you followed the instructions, you have a backup and you know how to restore from it. Do that.

  • I've accidentally deleted the System Administrator entry in Directory Utility. How do I recreate it?

    How do I recreate the "System Administrator" entry in Directory Utility. It was accidentally deleted.

    If you see this article: http://www.stupidlittleblog.com/2011/technology/apple/mac-os-x-lion/mac-os-x-lio n-root-user-sigin-error/#.To_DWOsb6jV
    I was having the same root user password login problem.
    So I followed the instructions in it, but instead of deleting "AuthenticationAuthority" setting for System Administrator, I accidentally deleted the whole "System Administrator".
    Therefore, I'll need to recreate the "System Administrator" entry in the Directory Utility. Maybe you can send me a screen capture of the System Administrator settings so I can try to recreate it. Or else if you know how I can recreate is (maybe from Terminal command line), it will be appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • Help Please - Accidentally Deleted Private Folder

    Please could someone help.
    I have accidentally deleted the Private folder in the root of the HD
    Now OSX will not boot.
    The folder is sitting in my Trash folder and I would like from the Boot CD Terminal to copy back from the trash to the Macintosh HD/ location
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Mim

    Not quite: If MimUK's account shortname is (for example): mimuk
    then it would be within that account's Trash, namely, you'll have to (yes) boot from another volume (not sure this will work booted from CD, but it might), *mount the drive in read+write mode*
    ie (possibly requiring sudo, depending on circumstances):
    sudo mount -uw /Volumes/nameOfTheDriveInQuestion
    sudo mv /Users/mimuk/.Trash/private /Volumes/nameOfTheDriveInQuestion/
    Moral of this story: don't make hidden folders visible for reasons just such as this
    And in any case, don't delete something unless you know full well what it's for.
