Reset lost root password for MySQL

 

If the server is not already running, start it up without checking for user credentials.

If your MySQL bin directory is not your system search path, change your working directory to the bin directory.

Start the MySQL process with skip-grant-tables option.

>mysqld-nt.exe --skip-grant-tables

Now MySQL is started  with every user having Full access all tables.

Now get to the admin console with user set to root .

>mysql --user=root

Then type  >use mysql  to select the mysql database.

You can combine the two steps by using   >mysql --user=root mysql

The user credentials are in the user table in mysql database.

Now set the new password by updating the user table.

>update user set Password=PASSWORD('new-password') where user='root';

Get MySQL to reload the grants table.

>flush privileges;

[If you are going to restart the server anyway, flushing might not be necessary as the user credentials and privileges are loaded on start up]

exit the mysql admin console .

>exit

To stop the server use the following command.

>mysqladmin shutdown

Many armed Bodhisattva

Came across a many armed statue of what I assumed was the Buddha.Surfed the net and found out that it wasn't the statue of Gautama the Buddha but that of a Bodhisattva(enlightened being). The Mahayana schools of Buddhism believe that the bodhisattvas have more than one head and many arms to comfort and heal humanity.

Also did some reading on Vesak day ...

Vesak(Sinhalese for Vaisaka) day signifies the birth of Gautama, the Buddha. It is also celebrated to commemorate two other significant events: the Buddha's attainment of enlightenment and his death. It is celebrated as Visakah puja, Buddha Jayanti or Buddha purnima (pournami in Tamil) in India. Purnima means a full moon day and Vesak day is the full moon day in the month of Visakah.
