案例环境：
操作系统 ：Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.7 (Tikanga) 64 bit
数据库版本 : Mysql 5.6.19 64 bit
案例介绍：
今 天开始学习mysql，遂先安装了Mysql 5.6.19 64bit 版本的数据库，结果安装成功了，但是使用root登录时遇到了ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)错误. 如下所示
[root@DB-Server tmp]# rpm -ivh MySQL-server-5.6.19-1.rhel5.x86_64.rpm

[root@DB-Server tmp]# mysql -u root mysql
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
安装过程中没有设置过root密码，不清楚root密码，搜索了网上一些资料，大致有下面一些情况：
1：有些博客说root的随机密码位于/root/.mysql_secret中，但是我这个版本根本没有/root/.mysql_secret文件。搜索到一篇文章，大意如下所示（没有确认）。到现在也没有明白，我这个版本为什么没有生成这个文件？
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) :表示没有生成root的临时密码
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES) :表示生成了root的临时密码。
2：有些资料说root的默认密码为空，经过确认那是以前的老版本，Mysql 5.6及以后版本出处于安全考虑，root密码已经不为空了。
另外，我在官网论坛居然发现有很多人遇到类似问题ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
解决方法：
首先停掉mysql服务器
[root@DB-Server init.d]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql stop
Shutting down MySQL..[ OK ]
然后使用mysqld_safe命令在启动mysql，更新root账号的密码
--skip-grant-tables：不启动grant-tables(授权表),跳过权限控制。
--skip-networking ：跳过TCP/IP协议，只在本机访问(从网上有些资料看，这个选项不是必须的。可以不用)
[root@DB-Server init.d]# mysqld_safe --user=mysql --skip-grant-tables --skip-networking &

执行上面命令后，此会话窗口会出现无反应的状态，需要使用CTRL+C中断会话，检查/var/lib/mysql/DB-Server.err日志，发现也无其它异常信息。没有弄明白该会话窗口为啥会出现无响应状态。

新设置用户或更改密码后需用flush privileges刷新MySQL的系统权限相关表，否则会出现拒绝访问，还有一种方法，就是重新启动mysql服务器，来使新设置生效。
mysql> flush privileges;

另外，如果登录mysql数据库后执行脚本遭遇 ERROR 1820 (HY000): You must SET PASSWORD before executing this statement,可以使用重新设置一次密码即可解决问题.
mysql>set password = password('p12#456');
至此问题解决，但是还有不少地方有些疑惑，为啥出现这个错误？ 其实这么多资料都只是说了解决方法，但是都回避了问题的原因。
