Dude listen,

You can given file privileges to existing users for all the Db's as

if you specify as grant file on database.* to user@localhost identified by 'passwd'; [ *Error* ]

If you mention to all the DB for a user as: grant file on *.* to user@localhost identified by 'passwd';

Try this, correct me if i am worng.This might help you out.

Perhaps I am misreading, but this sounds as if you think I disagreed with you. That isn't the case. I agreed your solution, "*.*" instead of "db.*" is correct, referenced the manual page which confirms it, and added that the "IDENTIFIED BY" clause is unnecessary for existing users. That is,

grant file on *.* to user@localhost identified by 'passwd';

will work, but

grant file on *.* to user@localhost;

is better (unless you really mean to reset the password).
