忘记mysql密码，无法登陆phpMyAdmin; mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed

一、mysql登录错误

mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed

error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)'

无法修改密码

用 service mysqld stop

mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables &

输入 mysql -uroot -p 回车进入

>use mysql;

> update user set password=PASSWORD("newpass")where user="root";

更改密码为 newpassord

> flush privileges; 更新权限

> quit 退出

service mysqld restart

mysql -uroot -p新密码进入

===========================================================

二，忘记本地root的登录密码

解决过程：

1、编辑/etc/my.cnf

在[mysqld] 配置部分添加一行

skip-grant-tables

2、保存后重启mysql

[root@localhost etc]# service mysqld restart

Shutting down MySQL. [ OK ]

Starting MySQL. [ OK ]

3、登录数据库重新设置root密码

[root@localhost ~]# mysql -uroot -p mysql

Enter password:

直接回车进入

执行下列语句

mysql> update user set password=password("mysql") where user='root';

Query OK, 4 rows affected (0.00 sec)

Rows matched: 4 Changed: 4 Warnings: 0

mysql> flush privileges;

Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

4、删除/etc/my.cnf文件中添加的“skip-grant-tables”行，重启mysql；

用新设的密码就能正常登录了；

重启Mysql服务的时候，有可能会出现上述截图错误。那么我们需要打开activity monitor杀死mysqld进程即可。

打开之后，搜索mysqld，然后点击左上角的X即可。可能系统版本不同，相应操作也不同。请自行查找。
