Summary

To run MySQL on Windows without relying on phpMyAdmin, developers can leverage the command line. Begin by starting the MySQL server process; open a console and execute mysqld -u root, which handles data communication. Once the server is active, connect to it using the MySQL client by typing mysql -u root -p in a separate console window. The default root password is often blank post-installation, but enter your configured password if prompted. A successful connection enables direct database interaction via command-line operations.

Sometimes if we want to run MySQL but we don't have phpMyAdmin installed. What should we do?

On Windows we can run MySQL in following steps:
  1. Open Console Window->Type "mysqld -u root". This means we start the mysql server with username root. This program will handle all the communications between our console window and the actual data;
  2. After starting the server, we need to use a client to connect to the server and communicate with it. the mysql program is right for this. Next in the command console, we type "mysql -u root -p" to connect the server. By default, after the installation,the default password for user root is blank. If you have changed the password, please enter your new password after the prompt "Enter password:";
  3. If all go well, congratulations, you have successfully connected to the server and next you can use some commands from this link to handle subsequent database processing. http://pixelstech.net/article/index.php?id=1306747097
