sometimes we will forget our password of root in MySQL DB server.so,there're several methods below to solve these kind of issues.
 
I. ALTER USER ...
  1. pkill mysqld
  2. vim my.cnf -> add skip-grant-tables
  3. sh mysqld.sh
  4. mysql -S /tmp/mysql3306.sock
  5. flush privileges;
  6. alter user root@localhost identified by '';
  7. login again using new password
  8. exit & modify my.cnf to the original state
 eg 1:
 
 #mysql -S /tmp/mysql3306.sock

Bye #mysql -p -S /tmp/mysql3306.sock
Enter password: <here the new Password is "innodb">
II. SET PASSWORD ...
  1. pkill mysqld
  2. vim my.cnf -> add skip-grant-tables
  3. sh mysqld.sh
  4. mysql -S /tmp/mysql3306.sock
  5. flush privileges;
  6. set password for root@localhost=''; --also can use password() function here
  7. login again using new password
  8. exit & modify my.cnf to the original state
 eg 2:

III. UPDATE MYSQL.USER SET ...
  1. pkill mysqld
  2. vim my.cnf -> add skip-grant-tables
  3. sh mysqld.sh
  4. mysql -S /tmp/mysql3306.sock
  5. flush privileges; --this step is not indispensable
  6. update mysql.user set authentication_string=password('') where ... ; --must use password() function,don't forget where clause to specify condition
  7. login again using new password
  8. exit & modify my.cnf to the original state
 eg 3:

    be careful,if you don't using the password() function to get your password,then you'll get a wrong result,and you cannot use the password "oracle" to login the mysql server.

IV. USING --INIT-FILE WITHOUT --SKIP-GRANT-TABLES(Recommended)
  1. pkill mysqld
  2. add "alter user ..." into file change_pass.sql
  3. start mysqld with --init-file=<yourpath>/change_pass.sql

    okay,now we know about the reason why the mysqld process down,it was the privilege issue of OS code 13.let's check the privilege of "change_password.sql" then:
 
 [root@zlm3 :: ~]
#ls -l
total
-rw-------. root root Jul anaconda-ks.cfg
-rw-r--r-- root root May : change_password.sql
-rwxr-xr-x root root Apr : mysql-5.7.-linux-glibc2.-x86_64.tar.gz
-rwxr--r-- root root Apr : mysqld.sh
-rw-r--r-- root root May : mysqld.strace
drwxr-xr-x mysql mysql May : zabbix-3.0.
-rwxr-xr-x root root May : zabbix-3.0..tar
    first of all,i use command "chown mysql.mysql change_password.sql" to give the right ownership to the sql file,but it still don't work. why?'cause the father directory "/root" is not belong to the mysql user.then,i moved the file to the "/home/mysql" directory which owned by mysql user:
 
 [root@zlm3 :: ~]
#mv change_password.sql /home/mysql [root@zlm3 :: ~]
#cd /home/mysql [root@zlm3 :: /home/mysql]
#ls -l
total
-rw-r--r-- mysql mysql May : change_password.sql
    let's start the mysqld process again,well,it's running now:
 
 [root@zlm3 :: ~]
#mysqld --defaults-file=/data/mysql/mysql3306/my.cnf --init-file=/home/mysql/change_password.sql &
[] [root@zlm3 :: ~]
#ps aux|grep mysqld
mysql 3.2 17.5 pts/ Sl : : mysqld --defaults-file=/data/mysql/mysql3306/my.cnf --init-file=/home/mysql/change_password.sql
root 0.0 0.0 pts/ R+ : : grep --color=auto mysqld [root@zlm3 :: ~]
#mysql -p -S /tmp/mysql3306.sock

(root@localhost mysql3306.sock)[(none)]::>
Summary:
  • when changing the password of root,shutdown the mysqld process once is necessary.
  • method 1~3 based on the parameter "--skip-grant-tables",the only difference is using different gramma.
  • method 1~2 need to use "flush privileges;" before excecution the spercific changing command.
  • method 4 is more convenient,so i rather recommend to use this way to achive your purpose.
  • putting the parameter "init-file=<your sql file path>" under the "[mysqld],[mysqld_safe],[server]" group is also a workaround,but i don't recommend that.
  • once you've executed "flush privileges;" ,it means the privilege table has been updated,then you must use the specific password you've changed just now with "-p" parameter to login the MySQL server,even if your parameter "skip-grant-tables" is still in my.cnf,only if you restart the mysqld process.
 
for example:
 
 #mysql -p -S /tmp/mysql3306.sock
Enter password: <here put the right password>
