该解决方案属于以前版本的MySQL。 通过使用套接字身份验证登录MySQL，您可以做到这一点。

sudo mysql -u root

然后可以运行以下命令。

ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'password';

Instead of resetting the password there is a work around on the local machine if you have setup phpmyadmin to connect without giving the password or username. Check this out by starting mysql, apache etc. I have xampp installed in my local machine. So starting the xampp will start all the necessary services. Now going to http://localhost/phpmyadmin shows me all the databases. This confirms that you have saved the username and passsword in the config file of phpmyadmin which can be found in the phpmyadmin install location. If you have xampp installed the phpmyadmin folder can be found in the root folder of xampp installation. Search for the word password in the config.inc.php file. There you will find the password and username.

当你在你想要更改密码的系统上使用MySQL的PASSWORD()时，它可能会导致密码在MySQL日志中以cleartext [source]显示。对我来说，让它们和备份等像密码一样安全听起来像是噩梦，所以我喜欢这样做:

On your local machine, run this with your password: mysql -u someuser -p < <(echo "SELECT PASSWORD('mypass');") Note the space in front to prevent it from turning up in the bash history (for other distros than Ubuntu, this might work differently – source). On your server machine, execute the following command to change its MySQL root password (replace myhash with your password's hash as printed by the first command): mysql -u root -p < <(echo "SET PASSWORD FOR root@localhost = 'myhash';") Optionally, let's be a bit paranoid: On your local machine, clear your terminal screen with clear and purge your virtual terminal scrollback, to hide the cleartext password appearing in the command above.

你可以尝试以下步骤来重置mysql的root密码:

首先停止Mysql服务

sudo /etc/init.d/mysql stop 

以root用户登录，不需要密码 Sudo mysqld_safe—skip-grant-tables &

登录mysql终端后，你需要执行更多的命令:

use mysql;




UPDATE mysql.user SET authentication_string=PASSWORD('solutionclub3@*^G'), plugin='mysql_native_password' WHERE User='root';


flush privileges;


sudo mysqladmin -S /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock shutdown

重启mysql服务器后 如果你仍然面临错误，你必须访问: 重置MySQL的root密码

官方和简单的方法来重置根密码在ubuntu服务器…

如果你在16.04 14.04 12.04

sudo dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-5.5

如果你在10.04:

sudo dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-5.1

如果您不确定安装了哪个mysql-server版本，您可以尝试:

dpkg --get-selections | grep mysql-server

mysql-server-5.7的更新说明

请注意，如果您使用的是mysql-server-5.7，则不能使用上面所示的更简单的dpkg-reconfigure方法。

如果你知道密码，登录并运行这个:

UPDATE mysql.user SET authentication_string=PASSWORD('my-new-password') WHERE USER='root';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

或者，您可以使用以下方法:

sudo mysql_secure_installation

这将询问您一系列关于保护安装的问题(强烈推荐)，包括是否需要提供新的根密码。

如果你不知道root密码，请参考这个以ubuntu为中心的进程写上去。

重置或修改密码请输入sudo dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-X。X (X.X是mysql版本你已经安装，即5.6,5.7)，然后你会提示一个屏幕，你必须设置新密码，然后在下一步确认密码，只是等待一会儿。就是这样。
