停止数据库

如果是apt-get或yum安装的mysql执行：

systemctl stop mysqld 修改my.cnf

利用vim命令打开mysql配置文件my.cnf，在mysqld进程配置文件中添加skip-grant-tables,添加完成后,执行wd保存。

vi /etc/my.cnf [mysqld]skip-grant-tables 重启数据库

利用命令行工具重启数据库

systemctl start mysqld 修改root密码

重启数据库后可以不用密码直接回车登陆：

./mysql -p Enter password:

可以直接登陆进数据库。

在mysql命令行下执行以下命令修改root密码：

update mysql.user set password=password(\\\'newpassword\\\') where user=\\\'root\\\'

#将password()中的newpassword字符更改为你自己的密码

mysql5.7及以上版本注意

当使用update user set passsword=password(“123456″) where user=”root”;修改root密码时会提示如下错误：

ERROR 1054 (42S22): Unknown column \\\'passsword\\\' in \\\'field list\\\'

这是因为在MySQL 5.7 password字段已从mysql.user表中删除，新的字段名是“authenticalion_string”.

可使用use mysql; desc user;查看如下：

+------------------------+-----------------------------------+------+-----+-----------------------+-------+ | Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra | +------------------------+-----------------------------------+------+-----+-----------------------+-------+ | Host | char(60) | NO | PRI | | | | User | char(32) | NO | PRI | | | | Select_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Insert_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Update_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Delete_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Create_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Drop_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Reload_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Shutdown_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Process_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | File_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Grant_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | References_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Index_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Alter_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Show_db_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Super_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Create_tmp_table_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Lock_tables_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Execute_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Repl_slave_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Repl_client_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Create_view_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Show_view_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Create_routine_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Alter_routine_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Create_user_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Event_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Trigger_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | Create_tablespace_priv | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | ssl_type | enum(\\\'\\\',\\\'ANY\\\',\\\'X509\\\',\\\'SPECIFIED\\\') | NO | | | | | ssl_cipher | blob | NO | | NULL | | | x509_issuer | blob | NO | | NULL | | | x509_subject | blob | NO | | NULL | | | max_questions | int(11) unsigned | NO | | 0 | | | max_updates | int(11) unsigned | NO | | 0 | | | max_connections | int(11) unsigned | NO | | 0 | | | max_user_connections | int(11) unsigned | NO | | 0 | | | plugin | char(64) | NO | | mysql_native_password | | | authentication_string | text | YES | | NULL | | | password_expired | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | | password_last_changed | timestamp | YES | | NULL | | | password_lifetime | smallint(5) unsigned | YES | | NULL | | | account_locked | enum(\\\'N\\\',\\\'Y\\\') | NO | | N | | +------------------------+-----------------------------------+------+-----+-----------------------+-------+ 45 rows in set (0.00 sec)

上面表中authentication_string的就是新的密码字段。使用上面的字段就可以重置密码 :

mysql> update user set authentication_string=password(\\\'123456\\\') where user="root"; Query OK, 1 row affected, 1 warning (0.00 sec) Rows matched: 1 Changed: 1 Warnings: 1 mysql> flush priviledges; 重启数据库

密码修改完成后，将my.cnf文件中添加的skip-grant-tables语句注释或删除掉，然后重启数据库即可

登陆检测

使用新密码重新登陆测试
