根据我的经验，如果你没有sudo，它是行不通的。所以确保你的命令是;

sudo mysql -uroot -p

根据我的经验，如果你没有sudo，它是行不通的。所以确保你的命令是;

sudo mysql -uroot -p

打开并编辑/etc/my.cnf或/etc/mysql/my.cnf，具体取决于你的发行版。 在[mysqld]下添加skip-grant-tables 重新启动MySQL 你现在应该可以使用下面的命令MySQL -u root -p登录MySQL 运行mysql> flush特权; 设置新密码ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED by 'NewPassword' 回到/etc/my.cnf，删除/comment skip-grant-tables 重新启动MySQL 现在你可以用新密码mysql -u root -p登录了

啊，对我来说什么都没用!我有一台运行MariaDB 5.5.64的CentOS 7.4机器。

我必须这么做，在YUM安装MariaDB之后;

systemctl restart mariadb
mysql_secure_installation

mysql_secure_installation将带您完成许多步骤，包括“设置根密码?”[Y / n]”。只要输入“y”并输入密码。随你怎么回答其他问题。

然后你可以用你的密码，使用

mysql -u root -p

它会存活下来

systemctl restart mariadb

的关键

然后，我检查了/bin/mysql_secure_installation源代码，看看它是如何神奇地改变根密码的，而这里的其他答案都不能。导入位是:

do_query "UPDATE mysql.user SET Password=PASSWORD('$esc_pass') WHERE User='root';"

.．.上面写着SET Password=…而不是SET authentication_string = PASSWORD....因此，本版本(5.5.64)的正确步骤是:

使用mysql -u root -p登录，使用您已经设置的密码。

或者，停止数据库并启动它:

mysql_safe --skip-grant-tables --skip-networking &

从mysql>提示符:

use mysql;
select host,user,password from user where user = 'root';
(observe your existing passwords for root).
UPDATE mysql.user set Password = PASSWORD('your_new_cleartext_password') where user = 'root' AND host = 'localhost';
select host,user,password from user where user = 'root';
flush privileges;
quit;

停止运行mysqld_safe。重启MariaDB。以root用户登录:mysql -u -p。请使用新密码。

如果您愿意，您可以一次设置所有的根密码。我认为这是明智的:

mysql -u root -p

(login)
use mysql;
select host,user,password from user where user = 'root';
UPDATE mysql.user set Password = PASSWORD('your_new_cleartext_password') where user = 'root';
select host,user,password from user where user = 'root';
flush privileges;
quit;

这将执行更新所有的根密码:即，“localhost”，“127.0.0.1”，和“::1”

将来，当我去RHEL 8或其他什么时候，我会试着记得检查/bin/mysql_secure_installation，看看那些家伙是怎么做的，谁是为这个操作系统配置MariaDB的人。

修复macOS

Install MySQL from https://downloads.mysql.com/archives/community/ (8.x is the latest as on date, but ensure that the version is compatible with the macOS version) Give password for root (let <root-password> be the password) during installation (don't forget to remember the password!) Select Use Legacy Password Encryption option (that is what I had used and did not try for Use Strong Password Encryption option) Search and open MySQL.prefPane (use search tool) Select Configuration tab Click Select option of Configuration File Select /private/etc/my.cnf From terminal open a new or existing file with name /etc/my.cnf (vi /etc/my.cnf) add the following content: [mysqld] skip-grant-tables Restart mysqld as follows: ps aux | grep mysql kill -9 <pid1> <pid2> ... (grab pids of all MySQL related processes) mysqld gets restarted automatically Verify that the option is set by running the following from terminal: ps aux | grep mysql > mysql/bin/mysqld ... --defaults-file=/private/etc/my.cnf ... (output) Run the following command to connect (let mysql-<version>-macos<version>-x86_64 be the folder where MySQL is installed. To grab the actual folder, run ls /usr/local/ and copy the folder name): /usr/local/mysql-<version>-macos<version>-x86_64/bin/mysql -uroot -p<root-password>

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。
