You're on Server version: 10.0.36-MariaDB-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 Ubuntu 16.04.<br>
<br>
My MariaDB tests are on Server version: 10.3.22-MariaDB-0ubuntu0.19.10.1 Ubuntu 19.10.<br>
<br>
<a href="https://mariadb.com/kb/en/create-user/#if-not-exists" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://mariadb.com/kb/en/create-user/#if-not-exists</a> says IF NOT EXISTS is OK<br>
for 10.3. Sounds like 10.0 doesn't support it.<br>
<br>
What happens if you do: CREATE USER 'blah'@'%' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password;<br>
and then do it again?<br>
<br>
DROP USER blah; will get rid of the new user.<br>
