Mysql> SELECT COUNT(user) FROM er Īs you can see, as a result, we currently have only 4 users in the Mysql database. The users schema, ssion, mysql.sys and root are created for us by the DBMS itself during its initial installation, and therefore I strongly do not recommend that you do anything with them.īut if we have too many users, and we want to know their number, then we can use the special COUNT() function, which will count all users for us. With this query, we're just looking at what users we have in the database. The user field in the result indicates what the user name is called in the database. With the very first query, we will simply query all users by running a query to the mysql system database and the user table in it.
#Mysql list all users password#
After entering the command next, you will be asked to enter the password for the root account, if you enter the password correctly, the DBMS will let you through, otherwise you will receive an authorization error. We will log in to the database from the root account, it is the most important in the Mysql database. If we want to view users through the console in Linux, then we need to connect to the Mysql console with the command: I'll show you some simple queries that will show you valuable information about users and help prevent possible problems. All users in Mysql are stored in the mysql system database in the user table. Sooner or later, the moment comes when we have created a lot of users and we need to review them all.

We get access to this information by logging into the database, and only then can we request some information from it.

By the way, in MariaDB, these commands are also suitable, which I will show you.Īs we all know, the main function of any database is of course to store some information in tables in a structured way. In today's article, we'll talk about how you can display all users in a Mysql database.
