I have an SQL query that works on older version of MySQL4 but won’t work on my current version of 5.5
I’m hoping someone can see what I can’t see with this.

select tblprefix_groups_permissions.permission_name
  from tblprefix_groups_permissions, tblprefix_users, tblprefix_permissions
 where tblprefix_groups_permissions.permission_name = tblprefix_permissions.permission_name
 and tblprefix_groups_permissions.group_id = tblprefix_users.group_id
 and (tblprefix_users.user_id = '==NUMERIC ID=='
 and (tblprefix_permissions.permission_name = 'ADMIN::SETTINGS::VIEW'
 or tblprefix_permissions.permission_name = 'ALL'))

The SQL statement should be pretty self explanitory as to what it does, I don’t see where the hangup could be. It is suppost to return a list if it returns nothing then the user is rejected.

    The statement is correct, I overlooked the fact that the statement also checks to make sure the Permission is in the Master Permissions table ie: tblprefix_permissions.permission_name I had not put the permission into the Master Permissions table yet

    So that makes me stupid or just tired LOL sorry guys, good work though and thanks for the quick responses
