I am creating a Software configuration for MySQL 5.6.22 and I'll need to create the root administration user root:rootroot.
Next step, I'll need to install as service/daemon with auto-start option and finally this installation needs:
MySQL Workbench 6.2.4
MySQL Connector/J 5.1.34
To configure the Data Base on RNL Lab of the project the programmer shell do:
The mysql -uroot -p try to connect to the server and it won't have access to it.
The programmer shell always use mysql-local-client, this might work as an alias to the root, while the pass maintains the same as "root".
For running the project it must be started by the MySQL Server on the working Computer:
mysql-local-start
At the end it might encounter the running server port (should be the 10000 or 10001).
After that it must have a connection to the server, using other command line, to creating the user, give the right privilege and finally for creating the Data Base with:
mysql-local-client
It's necessary to use this command, that works as an alias for the last server created.
Please run the next commands on MySQL Shell from the mysql-local-client:
CREATE USER 'bubble'#'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'bubbl3';
CREATE USER 'bubble'#'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'bubbl3';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON bubbledb.* TO 'bubble'#'localhost';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON bubbledb.* TO 'bubble'#'%';
CREATE DATABASE bubbledb;
At last it needed to change the properties for the Fenix Framework so that the next code runs (where 10000 is the running server port):
dbAlias=//localhost:10000/bubbledb?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8&clobCharacterEncoding=UTF-8&zeroDateTimeBehavior=convertToNull
dbUsername=bubble
dbPassword=bubbl3"

After I upgraded MySQL 5.7 to MySQL 8.0, I started MySQL again and I got an error:The user specified as a definer ('mysql.infoschema'#'localhost') does not exist' when trying to dump tablespaces.
I don't understand why this problem occurs. And I want to know how to solve it
I had the same error when I accidentally downgraded my MySQL version from 8 to 5.7. At the first start the older version broke something so that version 8 was showing the error above.
In my case I had to enter the docker container where MySQL was running first
docker exec -it mysql bash
Then I basically followed the steps here
mysql -u root -p
mysql> SET GLOBAL innodb_fast_shutdown = 1;
mysql_upgrade -u root -p
This took some minutes but then everything was working again.
It may occur after some time after you set up your new system.
As a suggested solution, just try on Windows
1) open cmd.exe as Administrator
2) run mysql_upgrade.exe -uyour_user_name -pyour_password
mysql_upgrade.exe can be located at
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin
Then run the following to see if the infoschema user has appeared.
select user, host from mysql.user;
In my case, such error was caused by that I had changed the host of the dba user from % to localhost to strengthen the security.
I used "abcdba" with DDL right to create db schema, and used "abc" with CURD right for the Web service to use the DB. After the change, the read operations were OK but the write operations failed with the error message in the OP.
Flush privilege or restarting the server did not solve the problem. Then I changed to host of the dba user back to %. Then things have become normal again.
Apparently mysql does not like the changes of host of the dba user, and existing databases created by that dba user will have problem if the host of the dba user is changed.
Essentially, changing the host of the dba user is actually removing user abcdba#% and creating a new user abcdba#localhost. Here had come the error message, since abcdba#% and abcdba#localhost are 2 differently fully qualified usernames.
I've been searching everywhere, and I just can't wrap my head around the procedure that lies in setting a server up with some schemas to be used along a website.
I'm using workbench, but also the command line way.
I have two desktop computers. One that I want for normal use. And the second to be put up as a mySQL database, and just that. The need here is that the database PC, should allow some kind of remote access, so that my website may connect to it.
Installing MySQL Server in windows is easy, however first access have a small tricks. Start by downloading MySQL Server from here:
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/
During the install don't forget to check the options to add MySQL to the System Path Variables.
After that you'll have to reset the root password. For some weird reason the root password doesn't work (at least on windows). Follow the instructions here:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/resetting-permissions.html
To make it shorter:
1) Type services.msc in start menu to open the service lists
2) Stop MySQL server
3) Create a txt file with the content below, placing the commands in 2 lines.
UPDATE mysql.user SET Password=PASSWORD('MyNewPass') WHERE User='root';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
4) Execute this command on a DOS prompt
"C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\bin\mysqld.exe" --defaults-file="C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\\my.ini" --init-file=C:\\arquivo.txt --console
The init-file must point to the file created in item (3)
5) Delete the file created, restart MySQL service and logon normally with root user
To test your login, use a DOS prompt and type
mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -u root -pMyNewPass (no spaces between "P" and your password).
Unfortunately, I have removed super user privileges from postgres user in PostgreSQL. And currently I have not any super user in PostgreSQL. And i want to make superuser. So how can i make it ? Every time I am trying to make postgres to super user. I am facing this problem.
Error : must be superuser to alter superusers.
(assuming you have root access on Ubuntu machine)
To enter psql as super user you need to:
sudo -u postgres psql
as suggested in this SO post here
If there is no user called postgres you need to create it on system first, with:
sudo adduser newuser
Else, if you have problems with password not accepted or not created at all you can follow (Ubuntu 14.04 related) instructions here or for more on user accounts look here
For me helps:
sudo -u gleb psql postgres
where gleb is my mac system user
Adding to Craig Ringer's answer, here is the procedure for MacOS and Brew if you accidentally downgrade your only PostgreSQL user:
brew services stop postgresql
Wait a few seconds and/or check Activity Monitor to make sure "postgres" is no longer running.
/usr/local/Cellar/postgresql/10.4/bin/postgres --single -D /usr/local/var/postgres
backend> ALTER USER "yourname" with superuser; or whatever privilege you need to fix
CTRL-D
brew services start postgresql
You're going to have to stop the database system and start a stand-alone back-end, which always unconditionally runs as a superuser.
You can use this backend to ALTER the user you wish to give superuser rights to. Then shut the standalone backend down and start the database normally.
It is important that you completely stop the database server before entering single user mode. PostgreSQL single user mode will refuse to start if there's a postmaster, but to be sure you should make sure there are no PostgreSQL processes running on your system. Under (almost) no circumstances should you ever delete postmaster.pid - that's pretty much guaranteed to result in database corruption if there's still any PostgreSQL process accessing that data directory.
Exactly how to start a standalone back-end depends a bit on your OS/distro and how you installed PostgreSQL. You haven't included this info, so I can only really point you at the manual for the postgres back-end executable.
Make a backup first.
In the single-user mode, the session user will be set to the user with ID 1, and implicit superuser powers are granted to this user. This user does not actually have to exist, so the single-user mode can be used to manually recover from certain kinds of accidental damage to the system catalogs.
See the section Options for Single User mode and, toward the bottom, Usage. You'll want to run the postgres backend with --single, as the unix user that owns the database files, with the path to the datadir. On a typical Linux PostgreSQL install this might be something like:
sudo systemctl stop postgresql-9.3.service
sudo -u postgres /usr/pgsql-9.3/bin/postgres --single -D /var/lib/pgsql/9.3/data
Your datadir and postgres executable location are quite possibly different. The above is for a Fedora system running with PGDG PostgreSQL packages from http://yum.postgresql.org/ .
Assuming that your system user is 'ec2-user'
So try this to enter as superuser
psql -U ec2-user postgres
This will enter you as ec2-user as superuser using postgres db
Now, change postgres user roles to superuser
ALTER USER postgres WITH SUPERUSER;
Quit from above console and now you can open psql using postgres user as superuser
psql -U postgres
Note: I tested this on PostgreSQL 12.5
SELECT usename AS role_name,
CASE
WHEN usesuper AND usecreatedb THEN
CAST('superuser, create database' AS pg_catalog.text)
WHEN usesuper THEN
CAST('superuser' AS pg_catalog.text)
WHEN usecreatedb THEN
CAST('create database' AS pg_catalog.text)
ELSE
CAST('' AS pg_catalog.text)
END role_attributes
FROM pg_catalog.pg_user
ORDER BY role_name desc;
log with root_user then give superuser to postgres
Im trying to create my own database with MySQL Workbench and run some queries on it. I have MySQL server 5.1 running and can enter queries in the command line tool to ask for version number and such.
But how do I get the server to host the database that I created in Workbench? When I enter "use MijnDatabase" or "-u root#localhost -p MijnDatabase" it says the database cannot be found. This makes sense, "MijnDatabase" the database file name and it's not connected to the server in any way (also tried with "mydb" wich is the db name I see inside Workbench).
Anyway I'm missing the link between MySQL server and hosting an actual database file.
When you create a database use only lower case letters and use underscore to separate words:
create database my_database;
use my_database;
show tables;
etc...
To connect to your database use:
mysql -u root -p
enter your password then
use my_database;
show tables;
etc...
I have not used MySQL Workbench but the command line and phpMyAdmin. I suggest you start using the command line to learn a little bit MySQL, then use a GUI tool. However the command line is your best teacher.
Have a look in the reference doc: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/create-database.html
. Lean how to create a user and grant him permission on the database.
I lost my MySQL username and password. How do I retrieve it?
Stop the MySQL process.
Start the MySQL process with the --skip-grant-tables option.
Start the MySQL console client with the -u root option.
List all the users;
SELECT * FROM mysql.user;
Reset password;
UPDATE mysql.user SET Password=PASSWORD('[password]') WHERE User='[username]';
But DO NOT FORGET to
Stop the MySQL process
Start the MySQL Process normally (i.e. without the --skip-grant-tables option)
when you are finished. Otherwise, your database's security could be compromised.
Unfortunately your user password is irretrievable. It has been hashed with a one way hash which if you don't know is irreversible. I recommend go with Xenph Yan above and just create an new one.
You can also use the following procedure from the manual for resetting the password for any MySQL root accounts on Windows:
Log on to your system as Administrator.
Stop the MySQL server if it is running. For a server that is running as a Windows service, go to
the Services manager:
Start Menu -> Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services
Then find the MySQL service in the list, and stop it. If your server is
not running as a service, you may need to use the Task Manager to force it to stop.
Create a text file and place the following statements in it. Replace the password with the password that you want to use.
UPDATE mysql.user SET Password=PASSWORD('MyNewPass') WHERE User='root';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
The UPDATE and FLUSH statements each must be written on a single line. The UPDATE statement resets the password for all existing root accounts, and the FLUSH statement tells the server to reload the grant tables into memory.
Save the file. For this example, the file will be named C:\mysql-init.txt.
Open a console window to get to the command prompt:
Start Menu -> Run -> cmd
Start the MySQL server with the special --init-file option:
C:\> C:\mysql\bin\mysqld-nt --init-file = C:\mysql-init.txt
If you installed MySQL to a location other than C:\mysql, adjust the command accordingly.
The server executes the contents of the file named by the --init-file option at startup, changing each root account password.
You can also add the --console option to the command if you want server output to appear in the console window rather than in a log file.
If you installed MySQL using the MySQL Installation Wizard, you may need to specify a --defaults-file option:
C:\> "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin\mysqld-nt.exe" --defaults-file="C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\my.ini" --init-file=C:\mysql-init.txt
The appropriate --defaults-file setting can be found using the Services Manager:
Start Menu -> Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services
Find the MySQL service in the list, right-click on it, and choose the Properties option. The Path to executable field contains the --defaults-file setting.
After the server has started successfully, delete C:\mysql-init.txt.
Stop the MySQL server, then restart it in normal mode again. If you run the server as a service, start it from the Windows Services window. If you start the server manually, use whatever command you normally use.
You should now be able to connect to MySQL as root using the new password.
An improvement to the most useful answer here:
1] No need to restart the mysql server
2] Security concern for a MySQL server connected to a network
There is no need to restart the MySQL server.
use FLUSH PRIVILEGES; after the update mysql.user statement for password change.
The FLUSH statement tells the server to reload the grant tables into memory so that it notices the password change.
The --skip-grant-options enables anyone to connect without a password and with all privileges. Because this is insecure, you might want to
use --skip-grant-tables in conjunction with --skip-networking to prevent remote clients from connecting.
from: reference: resetting-permissions-generic
Do it without down time
Run following command in the Terminal to connect to the DBMS (you need root access):
sudo mysql -u root -p;
run update password of the target user (for my example username is mousavi and it's password must be 123456):
UPDATE mysql.user SET authentication_string=PASSWORD('123456') WHERE user='mousavi';
at this point you need to do a flush to apply changes:
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
Done! You did it without any stop or restart mysql service.
While you can't directly recover a MySQL password without bruteforcing, there might be another way - if you've used MySQL Workbench to connect to the database, and have saved the credentials to the "vault", you're golden.
On Windows, the credentials are stored in %APPDATA%\MySQL\Workbench\workbench_user_data.dat - encrypted with CryptProtectData (without any additional entropy). Decrypting is easy peasy:
std::vector<unsigned char> decrypt(BYTE *input, size_t length) {
DATA_BLOB inblob { length, input };
DATA_BLOB outblob;
if (!CryptUnprotectData(&inblob, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, CRYPTPROTECT_UI_FORBIDDEN, &outblob)) {
throw std::runtime_error("Couldn't decrypt");
}
std::vector<unsigned char> output(length);
memcpy(&output[0], outblob.pbData, outblob.cbData);
return output;
}

If you have root access to the server where mysql is running you should stop the mysql server using this command
sudo service mysql stop
Now start mysql using this command
sudo /usr/sbin/mysqld --skip-grant-tables --skip-networking &
Now you can login to mysql using
sudo mysql
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
SET PASSWORD FOR 'root'#'localhost' = PASSWORD('MyNewPass');
Full instructions can be found here http://www.techmatterz.com/recover-mysql-root-password/
Login MySql from windows cmd using existing user:
mysql -u username -p
Enter password:****
Then run the following command:
mysql> SELECT * FROM mysql.user;
After that copy encrypted md5 password for corresponding user and there are several online password decrypted application available in web. Using this decrypt password and use this for login in next time.
or update user password using flowing command:
mysql> UPDATE mysql.user SET Password=PASSWORD('[password]') WHERE User='[username]';
Then login using the new password and user.
After MySQL 5.7.6 and MariaDB 10.1.20 (currently in 2022) you can:
Update a mysql user password having access to root user
ALTER USER 'some_user_name'#'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'a_super_secure_password';
Update mysql root user
ALTER USER 'root'#'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password by 'mynewpassword';
List all users
select user from mysql.user;
IF you happen to have ODBC set up, you can get the password from the ODBC config file. This is in /etc/odbc.ini for Linux and in the Software/ODBC folder in the registry in Windows (there are several - it may take some hunting)
Save the file. For this example, the file will be named C:\mysql-init.txt.
it asking administrative permisions for saving the file
Although a strict, logical, computer science'ish interpretation of the op's question would be to require both "How do I retrieve my MySQL username" and "password" - I thought It might be useful to someone to also address the OR interpretation. In other words ...
1) How do I retrieve my MySQL username?
OR
2) password
This latter condition seems to have been amply addressed already so I won't bother with it. The following is a solution for the case "How do i retreive my MySQL username" alone. HIH.
To find your mysql username run the following commands from the mysql shell ...
SELECT User FROM mysql.user;
it will print a table of all mysql users.
