Automate mysql_secure_installation with echo command via a shell script

Question

I am trying to automate mysql_secure_installation script with automated response. My code is as follows :

echo \"& y y abc abc y y y y\" | ./usr/bin/mysq         


        

Answer 1

1. In Windows OS just search for 'mysql_secure_installation' application usually found in Drive:\MySQL_Install-DIR\bin\
2. By pressing WindowKey + R just run the command 'Drive:\MySQL_Install-DIR\bin\mysql_secure_installation'

When you run this command a window will pop up that will walk you through the process of securing your MySQL installation. That's it!
