1.修改配置文件：进入/etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/ ，在配置文件mysqld.cnf下添加 skip-grant-tables

2.在终端输入命令：sudo service mysql restart来重新启动mysql服务

3.输入:mysql -u root -p，回车进入mysql（此时不需要密码即可直接进入）

4.输入：use mysql；

5.输入:update user set authentication_string=‘’ where user=‘root’;,将authentication_string 置空;

6.输入：alter user ‘root’@‘localhost’ identified by ‘newpassword’；，newpassword为要修改的新密码；

此时提示错误：ERROR 1290 (HY000): The MySQL server is running with the --skip-grant-tables option so it cannot execute this statement

输入：FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

再重新alter user ‘root’@‘localhost’ identified by ‘newpassword’；

此时错误提示为：ERROR 1524 (HY000): Plugin ‘auth_socket’ is not loaded

，

输入select user,plugin from mysql.user;来查看plugin

这里输入update user set plugin=‘mysql_native_password’ where user=‘root’;将plugin改为以前版本的密码认证方式

然后输入：FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

再重试alter user ‘root’@‘localhost’ identified by ‘newpassword’；即可修改密码

7.修改完成后输入FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

8. 将第一步的skip-grant-tables注释掉；

9.输入service mysql restart重启mysql
