Changing mySQL password error
I've been trying to change MySQL password on Windows. I stoped the mySQL from services. I wrote a text file with the following command:
USE mysql;
UPDATE mysql.user SET Password=PASSWORD('pass')WHERE user=root;
FLUSH PRIVELEGES;
and placed it in C:. I opened cmd and wrote the following:
cd C:Program FilesMySQLMySQL Server 8.0bin
then
mysqld --defaults-file"C:\ProgramData\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\my.ini" --init-file=C:password
I get the following error:
mysqld: Can't change dir to 'C:Program FilesMySQLMySQL Server 8.0data' (OS errno 2 - No such file or directory)
