On MySQL 8, when you start MySQL, it generate a temporary root password, that you can find with command
grep 'temporary password' /var/log/mysqld.log
When i try run some SQL commands after login with this temporary password, i get error
ERROR 1820 (HY000): You must reset your password using ALTER USER statement before executing this statement.
To fix this, you need to change your MySQL root password by running
ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD';
Wow.. It’s just need localhost.. so sad lah…
I use it without localhost on MySQL 8.0.2 windows 64 bit. adding localhost as host on updateting the database solve the problem. Thank you
This also work on windows 10
hi Benyamin,
I use win 10. I installed mysql. It generated a temporary password for mysql root. Then I created a user with some permissions. yesterday the userlogin was working fine. Today it shows the error.
C:\myWebProject\mysql\bin>mysql -u myuser -p
Enter password: *****
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user ‘myuser’@’localhost’ (using password: YES)
wow! Thanks! I need it, so clear your post!
