如果你想修改MySQL root密码，在终端输入:

Sudo dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-5.5

MySQL守护进程将被停止，并提示您输入新密码。

正如mysql文档中password()函数所说:

此函数在MySQL 8.0.11中被移除。

这将使mysql v8.0.11及更新版本的所有现有答案都失效。

根据mysql文档，重置root密码的新通用方法如下:

The preceding sections provide password-resetting instructions specifically for Windows and Unix and Unix-like systems. Alternatively, on any platform, you can reset the password using the mysql client (but this approach is less secure): Stop the MySQL server if necessary, then restart it with the --skip-grant-tables option. This enables anyone to connect without a password and with all privileges, and disables account-management statements such as ALTER USER and SET PASSWORD. Because this is insecure, if the server is started with the --skip-grant-tables option, it enables --skip-networking automatically to prevent remote connections. Connect to the MySQL server using the mysql client; no password is necessary because the server was started with --skip-grant-tables: shell> mysql In the mysql client, tell the server to reload the grant tables so that account-management statements work: mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES; Then change the 'root'@'localhost' account password. Replace the password with the password that you want to use. To change the password for a root account with a different host name part, modify the instructions to use that host name. mysql> ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'MyNewPass'; You should now be able to connect to the MySQL server as root using the new password. Stop the server and restart it normally (without the --skip-grant-tables and --skip-networking options).

如果部署在xampp上，您可以通过提供的phpadmin gui轻松更改mysql密码。

phpMyAdmin -> User Accounts -> Edit Privileges (Select the intended user) -> Change Password (Tab)

这就像我为Ubuntu 16.04做的一样。 完全归功于下面的链接，因为我从那里得到了它。 [https://coderwall.com/p/j9btlg/reset-the-mysql-5-7-root-password-in-ubuntu-16-04-lts] [1]

停止MySQL

sudo service mysql stop

制作MySQL服务目录。 Sudo mkdir /var/run/mysqld

赋予MySQL用户写入服务目录的权限。

sudo chown mysql: /var/run/mysqld

手动启动MySQL，不需要权限检查或联网。

sudo mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables --skip-networking &

无需密码即可登录。

mysql -uroot mysql

更新root用户密码。 确保下面的查询至少更新了根帐户。 如果您愿意，进行一些选择并检查现有的值

UPDATE mysql.user SET 
authentication_string=PASSWORD('YOURNEWPASSWORD'), 
plugin='mysql_native_password' WHERE User='root';
EXIT;

关闭MySQL。

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

正常启动MySQL服务。

sudo service mysql start

在我的例子中，这个选项很有用:https://stackoverflow.com/a/49610152/13760371 谢谢你，拉胡尔。

除了下面的时刻，当我尝试输入命令:

UPDATE mysql.user SET authentication_string=PASSWORD('YOURNEWPASSWORD'), plugin='mysql_native_password' WHERE User='root' AND Host='%';

控制台发出警告:

1681 'password' is deprecated and will be removed in a future release

用这个命令治愈:

UPDATE mysql.user SET authentication_string=CONCAT('*', UPPER(SHA1(UNHEX(SHA1('NEWPASSWORD'))))), plugin='mysql_native_password' WHERE User='root' AND Host='localhost';

MySQL版本5.7.X

我的版本:

1. > sudo service mysql stop
2. > sudo mkdir /var/run/mysqld
3. > sudo chown mysql: /var/run/mysqld
4. > sudo mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables --skip-networking &
5. > mysql -uroot mysql
6. > UPDATE mysql.user SET authentication_string=CONCAT('*', UPPER(SHA1(UNHEX(SHA1('NEWPASSWORD'))))), plugin='mysql_native_password' WHERE User='root' AND Host='localhost';
7. > \q;
8. > sudo mysqladmin -S /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock shutdown
9. > sudo service mysql start

下面的步骤对我很有效。我使用MySQL 8。*在Ubuntu上

停止MySQL服务，检查状态确认服务已停止

Sudo systemctl停止mysql Sudo systemctl status mysql

编辑systemd配置文件，这样您就可以在没有权限检查的情况下访问MySQL Sudo systemctl编辑mysql 复制并粘贴以下3行

(服务) ExecStart = ExecStart=/usr/sbin/mysqld——skip-grant-tables——skip-networking

粘贴行后按CTRL+0保存，然后按CTRL+X退出

重新加载mysql服务并启动它(使用——skip-grant-table启动服务)

Sudo systemctl daemon-reload Sudo systemctl启动mysql

5.现在无需密码即可连接MySQL服务器

sudo mysql -u root

6.通过运行加载授权表

mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

重置root密码

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

关闭mysql连接

mysql >退出

恢复对mysql systemd文件所做的修改

Sudo systemctl恢复mysql

重新加载mysql守护进程以进行更改。

Sudo systemctl daemon-reload

最后重新启动MySQL服务

Sudo systemctl restart mysql

现在用第7步设置的新密码连接mysql
