Here you grant jill@(protected) all privileges on a table named pail.

You didn 't specify the host (localhost), so you got the default, which
is %. You don 't have a user named 'jill@% ', however, so you got an error.

You can clean up with

REVOKE ALL PRIVILEGES FROM jill@(protected)

then use

GRANT ALL ON pail.* to jill@(protected) identified by 'hill '

to grant rights to the pail db.
