报错;
进行修改密码操作
mysql> update user set password=password(“新密码”) where user=”用户名”;
执行后报错  ERROR 1054(42S22) Unknown column 'password' in ‘field list’
错误的原因是 5.7版本下的mysql数据库下已经没有password这个字段了,password字段改成了authentication_string

解决办法;

mysql> update mysql.user set authentication_string=password('*******') where user='*******';  #修改密码成功
Query OK, 1 row affected, 1 warning (0.00 sec)
Rows matched: 1  Changed: 1  Warnings: 1

mysql> flush privileges;  #立即生效
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> quit
Bye
