How to install MySql5.7 on CentOS7.2 and enable remote connection authorization

1. Install mysql5.7

Centos 7 and later versions use mariadb in the default source of yum instead of the original mysql, so the installation method has some changes compared to the past:

Download the source of mysql

wget http://dev.mysql.com/get/mysql57-community-release-el7-7.noarch.rpm

Install the yum library

yum localinstall -y mysql57-community-release-el7-7.noarch.rpm

Install mysql

yum install -y mysql-community-server

Start the mysql service

systemctl start mysqld.service

2. Modify the mysql root password

mysql5.7 strengthens the security of the root user, so a random password will be initialized after the first installation. The following is how to view the initial random password

grep 'temporary password' /var/log/mysqld.log

The results are as follows:

Enter mysql

mysql -uroot -p

Change password

set password = password('yybrhr_2018');
alter user 'root'@'localhost' password expire never;
flush privileges;

Then log out and log in with the new password.

3. Remote connection authorization:

grant all privileges on *.* to 'root'@'%' identified by 'yybrhr_2018' with grant option;

After authorization, check with nevicat Is it possible to connect? If not, it may be due to firewall restrictions. You need to add rules for opening database ports in the firewall.

4. The firewall opens the database port (default 3306, which can be modified in /etc/my.cnf)

[1] View the current firewall

firewall-cmd --list-all

【2】Open port 3306

firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=3306/tcp

【3】Restart the firewall

service firewalld restart

【4】Check whether port 3306 is open

 firewall-cmd --query-port=3306/tcp

【5】Check the current firewall again

firewall-cmd --list-all
