I need to be able to write out past my /home/ directory on my server however, when I try to allow the necessary permissions, my server throws a 500 error. How can I allow MySQL to create and write to an outfile past the /home/ directory?

Hello stsIT, Thanks for submitting a question about MySQL permissions. How are you attempting to assign the privileges? If you can provide some replication steps perhaps we can reproduce the error. We have a full guide on how you can assign privileges to a MySQL user and connect it to a certain database via cPanel. Best, Christopher M.
