CentOS 7的yum源中貌似没有正常安装mysql时的mysql-sever文件，需要去官网上下载

# wget http://dev.mysql.com/get/mysql-community-release-el7-5.noarch.rpm# rpm -ivh mysql-community-release-el7-5.noarch.rpm# yum install mysql-community-server

　　

成功安装之后重启mysql服务

# service mysqld restart

　　

设置密码的方法初次安装mysql是root账户是没有密码的

# mysql -urootmysql> set password for ‘root’@‘localhost’ = password('mypasswd');mysql> exit
