在尝试了所有其他答案后，这是最后对我有用的:

sudo mysql -- It does not ask me for any password

-- Then in MariaDB/MySQL console:
update mysql.user set plugin = 'mysql_native_password' where User='root';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
exit;

我发现答案在博客文章解决:错误“访问拒绝用户' root ' @ ' localhost '”的MySQL - codementor。科技(媒介)。

在设置mysql-8 zip版本时，我得到了同样的错误。最后，切换到无缝工作的安装版本。在安装过程中，会提示设置root密码。一旦设置好，它就一定能工作。

在我的Debian 10的情况下，错误

ERROR 1698 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'

(好方法)解决了

sudo mysql -u root -p mysql

不好的方法:

mysql -u root -p mysql

需要检查的一件事是from-host筛选器。默认情况下可能是“localhost”。您正在尝试从远程客户端连接吗?将其更改为“%”。

在Arch Linux上

软件包:mysql 8.0.29-1

对我有用的是:

Edit my.cnf file, normally can be found at /etc/mysql/my.cnf and append this skip-grant-tables at the bottom/end of the file. Restart mysql service by invoking sudo systemctl restart mysqld Ensuring mysql service has started properly by invoking sudo systemctl status mysqld Login to mysql using 'root' by invoking mysql -u root -p Flush privileges by invoking flush privileges; Create new user by CREATE USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'rootpassword'; (If you plan to use this db with PHP), you should instead use this CREATE USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'rootpassword'; Check whether your changes have reflected in db by invoking the following in sequence: use mysql; SELECT User, password_last_changed FROM user; Exit mysql console and comment/remove skip-grant-tables by editing my.cnf file (Refer to step 1 for the location) Restart the mysql service (Refer to step 2 and step 3)

就这些。

使用sudo修改密码:

sudo mysql

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