MySQL 8.0.15 installation tutorial for Windows 64-bit

First go to the official website to download and click on MySQL download

After downloading, unzip it

After decompression, it looks like this

Configure system environment variables

Copy the unzipped mysql to drive C or another disk

We add a mysql configuration to the system's environment variable path to point to the mysql bin directory

Configure the initialization file my.ini

There is no my.ini file in the unzipped directory. You can create it yourself in the my.ini file added to the installation root directory (create a new text file and change the file type to .ini), and write the basic configuration:

[mysqld]
# Set port 3306 port=3306
# Set the installation directory of MySQL basedir=C:\Program Files\MySQL
# Set the storage directory of MySQL database data datadir=C:\Program Files\MySQL\Data
# Maximum number of connections allowed max_connections=200
# The number of connection failures allowed.
max_connect_errors=10
# The default character set used by the server is UTF8
character-set-server=utf8
# The default storage engine that will be used when creating a new table default-storage-engine=INNODB
#Default authentication is done with the "mysql_native_password" plugin #mysql_native_password
default_authentication_plugin=mysql_native_password
[mysql]
# Set the default character set of the mysql client to default-character-set=utf8
[client]
# Set the default port used by the mysql client to connect to the server port = 3306
default-character-set=utf8 

Install MySQL

When installing, try to run CMD as an administrator, otherwise an error will be reported during installation, which will cause the installation to fail.

Enter the mysql directory directly into CMD

Execute the command in the warehouse directory of the MySQL installation directory:

mysqld --initialize --console

Notice! [Note][MY-010454][Server] Generating temporary password for root@localhost: 9P0gYk-? 0,kT where root@localhost:9P0gYk-? 0, kT is the initial password (excluding the first space). Before changing the password, you need to remember this password as it will be needed for subsequent logins. Copy the password and save it first!!!

Installation Services

Go to the C:\Windows\System32 directory and find cmd.exe, right click and run it as an administrator (this must be done!)

CD into the MySQL warehouse directory

Run the following command:

mysqld --install [service name] (the service name can be omitted and the default is mysql)

Success!

If this occurs

This means that the mysql service is still deleting it.

Use this command

MySQL deleted by SC

Install the service on execution

After the service is successfully installed, start the MySQL service through the command net start mysql

Okay, you can close the CMD window! It's no longer needed.

I believe everyone has Navicat, Little Dolphin and other database graphical tools

I also share a free installation of Navicat Premium 12

Our MySQL service is already started, so just open Navicat to connect

New MySQL connection

Do you remember the initial password after root@localhost: that I just asked you to copy? Now we need it, so copy and paste it!

Test it out!

MySQL is successfully installed and you can log in

Now is the time to change your password

Write SQL to change password?

Too much trouble, too low

Come on, I have a simple way

Use Navicat to click on the connection just now

We will be prompted to enter a new password
