Mysql Event Not Working

Question

I have added the following simple test event on my mysql database via phpmyadmin:

CREATE DEFINER=`root`@`localhost` EVENT `my_event` 
ON SCHEDULE EVERY 1 MINUTE          


        

Answer 1

I would just like to add to this thread. I dumped my database to another server and as a result the definer of my event had no such grant defined for the user. I updated my definer with

ALTER DEFINER='root'@'localhost' EVENT event.name COMMENT '';

Make sure your definer has the correct PRIVILEGES.
