CentOS6.8下MySQL數據庫忘記root密碼解決方法

一、更改my.cnf配置文件

編輯/etc/my.cnf文件，在[mysqld]下添加skip-grant-tables，保存退出。如圖：

重啟mysql服務：services mysqld restart

二、更改root密碼

重啟mysqld服務后，執行mysql命令，進入mysql命令行：

[root@yeebian ~]# mysql
Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 2
Server version: 5.1.73 Source distribution

mysql> 

修改root密碼

mysql> UPDATE mysql.user SET Password=PASSWORD('mysqladmin') where USER='root';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
Rows matched: 3  Changed: 0  Warnings: 0

mysql> flush privileges;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> exit
Bye

三、刪除/etc/my.cnf中的skip-grant-tables，或者注釋掉，重啟mysql即可。
