How To Change/Update MySQL Password

PASSWORD_TEXT The plain text of the password
  PASSWD_HASH the password hash string copied from another user
         USER The MySQL User Account
         HOST The Users Hostname, domain/IP (% is wildcard eg '%' or '192.168.%')

How To Update MySQL Password - Method: Plain Text String (eg. '321asdFDSA0...etc')

UPDATE mysql.user 
   SET Authentication_string=PASSWORD('PASSWD_TEXT') 
   WHERE user='USER' AND host='HOST'; 
   FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

How To Update MySQL Password - Method: Password Hash String (eg. '*E9DA6A838E...etc')

UPDATE mysql.user 
   SET Authentication_string='PASSWD_HASH' 
   WHERE user='USERN' AND host='HOST'; 
   FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

How To Reset Root Password

adds skip-grant-tables to /etc/my.cnf in the first [mysqld] section

[[ $(grep skip.grant.tables /etc/my.cnf) ]] || sed -e 's/\([[]mysqld[]]\)/\1\nskip-grant-tables/' /etc/my.cnf

Restart MySQL/MariaDB

systemctl restart mysql

Connect to MySQL

mysql

Enable Privileges Again

FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Update Root Password & SHUTDOWN MySQL

ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'nEw_pAssWoRd!'; SHUTDOWN;

Remove skip-grant-tables from /etc/my.cnf

sed -i '/skip.grant.tables/Id' /etc/my.cnf

Start MySQL/MariaDB

systemctl restart mysql

Tested Working On The Following Version:

• Server version 5.7

Tested Working On Prior Versions with modification - Prior Versions Use "Password" instead of "Authentication_string" to identify the password field so modify the above commands accordingly.

• Server version 5.5.5-10.3.35-MariaDB
