我刚刚在Mac OS x上安装了MySQL，下一步是设置root用户密码，所以我接下来这样做:
启动终端应用程序以访问Unix命令行。
在Unix提示符下，我执行了以下命令:
cd /usr/local/mysql/bin
./mysqladmin -u root password' password'
但是，当我执行命令时
./mysql -u root，这是答案:

我不需要密码就能进入mysql命令行!
为什么会这样?
如果您不记得设置的root密码，需要重置密码，请执行以下步骤:
Stop the mysqld server, this varies per install
Run the server in safe mode with privilege bypass
sudo mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables;
In a new window connect to the database, set a new password and flush the permissions & quit:
mysql -u root
For MySQL older than MySQL 5.7 use:
UPDATE mysql.user SET Password=PASSWORD('your-password') WHERE User='root';
For MySQL 5.7+ use:
USE mysql;
UPDATE mysql.user SET authentication_string=PASSWORD("your-password") WHERE User='root';
Refresh and quit:
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
\q
Stop the safe mode server and start your regular server back. The new password should work now. It worked like a charm for me :)
Note
运行
更新mysql。SET authentication_string=null WHERE user ='root';
如果您不想为root用户设置密码。或者PASSWORD()函数不适合您。
MySQL 8
关闭MySQL服务器
进入系统首选项-> MySQL
单击停止MySQL服务器按钮
打开两个终端[命令行]窗口
在第一个终端窗口中运行以下命令:

在第二个终端窗口中执行以下操作:

mysql -u root
4.2. 在MySQL提示符中执行如下命令:
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'NEWPASSWORD';
4.3. 退出MySQL
exit;
回到第一个终端窗口并关闭mysqld_safe
5.1. 按CTRL + Z
5.2. 运行以下命令
mysqladmin -u root -p shutdown
5.3. 输入在4.2中设置的新密码。当提示。
启动MySQL服务器[见1.]
