Hello,
unfortunally my MySQL Database won’t migrate to Omega.
I just installed the update from 20.5 and i’m not able to get the Database back.
Log show somthing like:
Old database found - updating from version 121 to 131
SQL: Can' t create database for copy: 'MyVideos121'(1007)
Unable to copy old database MyVideos121 to new version MyVideos131
and got some more errors like:
2025-04-16 09:32:04.755 T:563 error <general>: Unable to open database: MyVideos123 [1049](Unknown database 'MyVideos123')
2025-04-16 09:32:04.743 T:563 error <general>: Unable to open database: MyVideos124 [1049](Unknown database 'MyVideos124')

2025-04-16 09:32:04.718 T:563 error <general>: Unable to open database: MyVideos126 [1049](Unknown database 'MyVideos126')
2025-04-16 09:32:04.706 T:563 error <general>: Unable to open database: MyVideos 127 [1049](Unknown database 'MyVideos127')
2025-04-16 09:32:04.694 T:563 error <general>: Unable to open database: MyVideos 128
2025-04-16 09:32:04.682 T:563 error <general>: Unable to open database: MyVideos 129
I have just this OSMC device on that SQL server running.
When i recover to an older OSMC Version, the database is working fine again.
Someone can help me?
Tanks in advanced.
It’s possible that whatever MySQL user you are using doesn’t have enough permissions to create a database. It’s hard to tell with tiny long snippets though. Posting the entire log file will be much more useful.
Hi, thanks for your reply!
Well, the user is since ever identical. Didn’t change anything on the SQL Server.
And I did couple of release upgrades with no issues?!
Here is the relevant log:

I just droped the user for MySQL and create a new one like it is in MySQL/Setting up MySQL - Official Kodi Wiki mentioned.
Just the same error.
Which version other than Nexus did you had?
Generally your error is clearly a permission issue. KODI Database user need full permission not only on the current database but also to create new database and assign full rights (therefore I would normally run it on a dedicated MySQL server)
… I got it.
Just rolled back my SQL Server before OSMC Update,
then i droped the User in MySQL and create a new
(actually exact the same one, so i don’t have to redo the settings in OSMC)
as in MySQL/Setting up MySQL - Official Kodi Wiki described.
After a reboot on OSMC, the migration worked as expected!
Tanks for the help!
