You do not have the SUPER privilege and binary logging is
Error 1419 fires with the message: You do not have the SUPER privilege and binary logging is enabled (you might want to use the less safe log_bin_trust_function_creators variable). It blocks CREATE FUNCTION, CREATE PROCEDURE, and ALTER ROUTINE statements.
The server rejects these statements to guarantee that only highly privileged users create routines that might run with elevated rights during replication. The check is enforced when binary logging or replica logging is active.
The error appears immediately after you issue CREATE FUNCTION, CREATE PROCEDURE, or ALTER ROUTINE while binlog_format is not OFF and the current MySQL account lacks SUPER (pre-8.0.32) or ADMIN (8.0.32+).
If the global variable log_bin_trust_function_creators is set to 0 (default), MySQL requires the extra privilege. Setting the variable to 1 relaxes the rule but slightly reduces replication safety.
The failure blocks deployment pipelines, prevents application installs, and may delay migrations. Addressing the privilege or configuration gap unblocks routine creation while keeping replication safe.
Primary cause is missing SUPER or ADMIN privilege when binary logging is enabled and log_bin_trust_function_creators is 0.
Another frequent trigger is attempting to create deterministic routines that still reference unsafe nondeterministic functions, which forces the privilege check.
Grant SUPER or ADMIN privilege to the account, or temporarily connect as a more privileged user, then run the DDL.
Alternatively, set log_bin_trust_function_creators = 1 and reload privileges. This lets regular accounts create routines but should be used only in trusted environments.
CI/CD pipelines on read-write primary: add a deployment role with ADMIN privilege limited to routine creation.
Shared hosting: ask administrator to enable log_bin_trust_function_creators since SUPER is usually disallowed.
Create a dedicated deployment user with the minimum HIGH privilege needed just for routine DDL and rotate its password.
On development replicas disable binary logging to avoid privilege headaches while testing.
Error 1227 access denied; appears when generic privilege checks fail. Grant required rights.
Error 1418 ER_NO_SUCH_USER occurs if DEFINER user in the routine does not exist. Create the definer or change it.
The session account lacks the high-level privilege required when binary logging is active.
The default setting forces MySQL to demand SUPER/ADMIN for routine creation.
Production servers keep binary logging on for replication or PITR, triggering the privilege check.
Generic privilege failure for many administrative statements. Resolve by granting the missing privilege.
Occurs when the DEFINER clause references a user that does not exist. Create or modify the definer.
Raised during routine execution if the definer was dropped. Recreate or alter the routine.
Yes, if all routine creators are trusted. Replication may break if non-deterministic routines are logged without proper safeguards.
From 8.0.32 onward SUPER is split into ADMIN roles such as SYSTEM_VARIABLES_ADMIN and SYSTEM_USER. Grant those instead.
Yes, but you lose replication and point-in-time recovery. Prefer fixing privileges.
Galaxy’s role-aware SQL editor flags missing privileges before execution and suggests the exact GRANT or SET statement, preventing pipeline failures.
