Mac-mysql initial password forgot to reset MySQL root password

Under what circumstances do I need to reset the root password? That's what we forgot. There is a kind of comparison pit, that is the author of this situation. Under normal circumstances, after the MySQL installation, will pop up a dialog box, showing a temporary root password, but no matter how I reinstall MySQL, never give me a temporary root password, resulting in the author has been unable to log on MySQL, no way, can only use hard, that is to reset the password.

To stop the MySQL service, turn on system Preferences, find MySQL and click on Stop MySQL server.

Step1: Apple ---System Preferences,/usr/local/mysql/bin/enter the following command to disable the MySQL authentication feature after entering the login administrator right after sudo su returns. /mysqld_safe--skip-grant-tables & MySQL will restart automatically after return (the MySQL status in preferences will change to running)

Open two terminals, enter in the first terminal sudo /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables , enter the current user's password:

1045 (28000for'root'@'localhost' (using password:no)

So let's change to the following:

macdemacbook-pro:~ mac$ mysql-uroot-h127. 0.0. 1 -1045 (28000for'root'  localhost' (using password:yes)

Then after entering the second terminal sudo /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql -u root , and then entering the current user's password, the following interface appears

macdemacbook-pro:~ mac$ Sudo/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql-u rootpassword:welcome to the MySQL Monitor. Commands End With; or \g.your MySQL connection ID is 3Server Version:5.7.

then enter the command UPDATE mysql.user SET authentication_string=PASSWORD(‘新密码‘) WHERE User=‘root‘;Enter, the following interface appears, indicating the success of the modification.

mysql> UPDATE mysql.user SET authentication_string=password ('123456') WHERE user='  root'  1 1 Warning (0.00 1  1  1

Next enter the flush privileges, and the following interface appears in the carriage return

mysql>0 rows affected (0.01 sec)

Finally, enter \q and exit. Turn off the first terminal, go back to your system preferences, and turn on MySQL again.

mysql> \qbye
