Find your MySQL configuration file. It's called 'my.cnf' and usually is located in either /etc or /etc/mysql directory. Edit the file and in [mysqld] section add: skip-grant-tables Then, execute the init script: # /etc/init.d/mysqld restart The database should start without privileges. After setting up password, remove 'skip-grant-tables' parameter from the config file and restart MySQL again.
