how do I drop a database?

[nemokoh2003]

Hi,

I issued the command "drop database db_name" follow by the command "show databases" to list the databases,
but I still see the database that I have supposely dropped.

How exactly do I remove a database that I have created?

Pls advise.

Perhaps the username you're using to log into MySQL doesn't have permission to drop that database. Or any database.

You didn't get an error?

before "drop" did you actually connect to the DB? then go
for drop....
