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';

1.打开nano / vim，创建一个包含以下内容的文件，并将文件保存为~/mysql-pwd

ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'NEWPASSWORD';

停止mysql sudo systemctl停止mysql 执行sudo mysqld -init-file=~/mysql-pwd命令 重启mysql sudo systemctl start mysql 现在登录mysql -u root -p。password将是你的NEWPASSWORD

I had to go this route on Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS. It is somewhat of a mix of some of the other answers above - but none of them helped. I spent an hour or more trying all other suggestions from MySql website to everything on SO, I finally got it working with: Note: while it showed Enter password for user root, I didnt have the original password so I just entered the same password to be used as the new password. Note: there was no /var/log/mysqld.log only /var/log/mysql/error.log Also note this did not work for me: sudo dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-5.7 Nor did: sudo dpkg-reconfigure --force mysql-server-5.5 Make MySQL service directory. sudo mkdir /var/run/mysqld Give MySQL user permission to write to the service directory. sudo chown mysql: /var/run/mysqld Then:

kill the current mysqld pid run mysqld with sudo /usr/sbin/mysqld & run /usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation Output from mysql_secure_installation root@myServer:~# /usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation Securing the MySQL server deployment. Enter password for user root: VALIDATE PASSWORD PLUGIN can be used to test passwords and improve security. It checks the strength of password and allows the users to set only those passwords which are secure enough. Would you like to setup VALIDATE PASSWORD plugin? Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No: no Using existing password for root. Change the password for root ? ((Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No) : y New password: Re-enter new password: By default, a MySQL installation has an anonymous user, allowing anyone to log into MySQL without having to have a user account created for them. This is intended only for testing, and to make the installation go a bit smoother. You should remove them before moving into a production environment. Remove anonymous users? (Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No) : y Success. Normally, root should only be allowed to connect from 'localhost'. This ensures that someone cannot guess at the root password from the network. Disallow root login remotely? (Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No) : y Success. By default, MySQL comes with a database named 'test' that anyone can access. This is also intended only for testing, and should be removed before moving into a production environment. Remove test database and access to it? (Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No) : y Dropping test database... Success. Removing privileges on test database... Success. Reloading the privilege tables will ensure that all changes made so far will take effect immediately. Reload privilege tables now? (Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No) : y Success. All done!

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.

我还没有看到MySQL 8.0指南中推荐的官方步骤，这是唯一适合我的步骤。下面是这些步骤的总结。

Stop the MySQL server if it is running. Look in /var/lib/mysql/, /var/run/mysqld/, or /usr/local/mysql/data/ to find the pid file with the server's process ID. Generally the file begins with either mysqld or your system's host name and ends with .pid. Replace mysql-data-directory and host_name that you just found, in the following command: $ sudo kill `sudo cat /mysql-data-directory/host_name.pid` This command will create a text file in /tmp/mysql-init with the SQL statement and makes the mysql user the owner. Replace in the command MyNewPass with your own password. $ echo "ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'MyNewPass';" > /tmp/mysql-init && sudo chown mysql /tmp/mysql-init Start the MySQL server by running the following command on the command line. After this the password is updated and you can close the server again with CTRL+C. $ sudo mysqld --user=mysql --init-file=/tmp/mysql-init & Remove the temporary file with your password: $ sudo rm /tmp/mysql-init
