I installed MySQL with brew using the command brew install mysql
and it installed MySQL correctly, but it gave me instructions that say:
We've installed your MySQL database without a root password. To secure it run:
mysql_secure_installation
So I ran the command mysql_secure_installation
, and it asked me for a password for the user root, and when I entered the password, it gave me this error:
The user provided does not have enough permissions to continue.
mysql_secure_installation is exiting.
I tried running mysql -u root -p
and entering in the sql terminal, but I am not able to run any query because I don't have access to do anything. Also, not able to grant any access to the root user.
I also tried to uninstall MySQL from my laptop and install it again, but again the same problem occurs.
Does anyone have a solution for this?
