MySQL 5.1 执行show databases没有mysql库

同事反映，在Mysql的一套测试库中执行'show databases;'命令，看不到mysql库
-bash-4.1$ mysql -uroot -p
Enter passWord:
mysql> select version();
+-----------+
| version() |
+-----------+
| 5.1.73    |
+-----------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> show databases;
+--------------------+
| Database           |
+--------------------+
| infORMation_schema |
| test               |
+--------------------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

查看报错日志，没有什么异常

查看数据文件目录里面的文件和相关操作系统权限，正常，数据文件的目录也正确
mysql> show variables like '%data%';

在网上查了一下相关的案例，发现与权限表mysql.user表有关

解决方法：
关闭数据库
mysqladmin -u root -p shutdown

以跳过权限认证方式启动mysql
mysqld_safe --defaults-file=/etc/my.cnf --skip-grant-tables &

删除mysql.user表中host名为'localhost'的记录
mysql> use mysql
mysql> delete from user where host='localhost';
Query OK, 7 rows affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> INSERT INTO `user` VALUES ('localhost','root','','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y','Y', 'Y', '','','','',0,0,0,0);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> commit;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

再次重启数据库后，正常
mysqladmin -u root -p shutdown

mysqld_safe --defaults-file=/etc/my.cnf &

更改root密码
mysqladmin -u root -proot password djg345
