Open the command prompt and enter the following commands:
net stop MySQL
net start MySQL
the MySQL service name maybe changes based on the version you installed.
In my situation, MySQL version is MySQL Server 5.7.
So I use the following command
net stop MySQL57
net start MySQL57

You can restart the service through the UI by following these steps:
-
Open task manager (may need to run as administrator)
-
Click on the «Service» button and find the «MySql» service
NOTE: In some cases, the «MySql» service will be named whatever you named the initial database when you created the server. For example, if you called the initial database «myfirstdb», then the service would be called «myfirstdb». You should be able to find the service by sorting by the «Description» column as the description will be blank.
-
Right-click on the «MySql» service and choose the «Restart» option
Thanks to @Doug_Ivison and @Lucky for the service name notes and «run as administrator» clarification in the comments.

These suggestions so far only work if the mysql server is installed as a windows service.
If it is not installed as a service, you can start the server by using the Windows Start button ==> Run, then browse to the /bin folder under your mysql installation path and execute mysqld. Or just open a command window in the bin folder and type: mysqld

First try:
net stop MySQL
net start MySQL
If that does not work, try using the windows interface:
Start > Control Panel > System and Security > Administrative Tools > Services
Look for your version of MySQL (In my case — MySQL55), highlight and click the green start arrow. The status should change to «Started»

Read on to learn how to start, stop, and restart MySQL server in both Linux and Windows.
How to Start, Stop, and Restart MySQL Server in Linux
If you need to stop or restart your MySQL server on a Linux system, there are three different commands that can be used:
- Depending on your Linux distribution, you can change the state of MySQL using the service command.
- To start MySQL server:
sudo service mysqld start - To stop MySQL server:
sudo service mysqld stop - To restart MySQL server:
sudo service mysqld restart
- To start MySQL server:
- If you don’t have the service command available or would prefer to make changes to MySQL using a different method, you can also use the init.d command to start/stop your MySQL server.
- To start MySQL server:
sudo /etc/init.d/mysqld start - To stop MySQL server:
sudo /etc/init.d/mysqld stop - To restart MySQL server:
sudo /etc/init.d/mysqld restart
- To start MySQL server:
- Lastly, you can also use the systemctl command to start, stop, and restart applications on Linux, including MySQL.
- To start MySQL server:
sudo systemctl start mysqld - To stop MySQL server:
sudo systemctl stop mysqld - To restart MySQL server:

- To start MySQL server:
How to Start, Stop, and Restart MySQL Server in Windows
If you’re trying to start, stop, or restart your MySQL server on a Windows-based system, you can do so easily from the command line. Just follow these 3 steps:
- To start, you’ll first need to open a terminal window. If you don’t have this somewhere easily accessible, you can find it quickly using the Windows’ Run dialog. To open the Run dialog, just press the Windows Key + R.
- Next, type in “cmd” and press the Enter key. This will open a new terminal window.
- Once you’ve opened a terminal window, just type the following commands to start or stop MySQL server:
- To start MySQL server:
mysqld start - To stop MySQL server:
mysqld stop
- To start MySQL server:
*Note: depending on which version of Windows you are running, you may need the specific name of the MySQL version number you are running in order to start or stop the service. To find this, go to the start menu and search for Services. Locate the version of MySQL you are using and try the following commands, replacing “##” with your version number:
net start MySQL##
net stop MySQL##
For instance, if you’re running MySQL 8.0, replace “MySQL##” with “MySQL80”.
And there you have it! You now have several different methods for starting, stopping, and restarting MySQL server as needed.

In this post, we are going to see how to start, stop, and restart MySQL Server on macOS, Linux, and Windows.
1. On Mac
You can start/stop/restart MySQL Server via the command line.
- For the version of MySQL older than 5.7:
sudo /usr/local/mysql/support-files/mysql.server start
sudo /usr/local/mysql/support-files/mysql.server stop
sudo /usr/local/mysql/support-files/mysql.server restart
- For the MySQL version 5.7 and newer:
sudo launchctl load -F /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist
sudo launchctl unload -F /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plist
- Or you can turn it on/off via the macOS Preference Panel
There’s another way which you can use DBngin, an free utility to install and manage multiple database servers on Mac.
- To turn on/off, it’s just one click away from the server control panel:
2. On Linux
- On Linux start/stop from the command line:
/etc/init.d/mysqld start
/etc/init.d/mysqld stop
/etc/init.d/mysqld restart
- Some Linux flavours offer the service command too
service mysqld start
service mysqld stop
service mysqld restart

В этой статье мы расскажем, зачем нужна MySQL, как перезапустить MySQL (MySQL restart), а также как остановить и снова запустить её.
Данные сайта — это файлы на сервере, а база — место, где они хранятся. Данные могут принимать любой облик. Например, при создании интернет-магазина базу данных могут использовать для хранения каталога товаров.
MySQL – это одна из популярных систем баз данных, которая используется для обеспечения работы сайтов. В этой системе работа с базой данных происходит с помощью SQL (Structured Query Language) ― языка структурированных запросов. MySQL работает так же, как и обычные серверы. Одно устройство делает запрос с помощью SQL-команд, а второе отвечает.
Для взаимодействия с MySQL-сервером используются специальные утилиты. В большинстве современных ОС для управления базами данных используют утилиту Systemd. Для перезагрузки и остановки БД мы будем использовать именно её.
Перед работой:

2.
Авторизуйтесь в системе для получения прав root.

MySQL is an RDMS that runs as a service on operating systems like Linux, Ubuntu, Debian, Windows, etc. As a service, it can be started, stopped, or restarted. If there is a problem or major change in the MySQL database generally a restart is required. Also if there is an unresolved problem or performance problem generally restarting the MySQL database server is the best first step. In this tutorial, we examine how to restart the MySQL database server or service in different operating systems (Linux, Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, Windows) using different methods.
Check Status of MySQL Database Server In Linux (Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS)
Before restarting the MySQL database server checking its status is beneficial. In Linux, there are a lot of ways to check the status of the MySQL database server whether it is running or stopped. But the most popular and compatible command is systemctl which can be used to check the status of the MySQL database server or service. The MySQL database service is named as mysqld for service name.
$ systemctl status mysqld
Alternatively the init.d scripts can be used to check MySQL database service status like below.
$ /etc/init.d/mysql statusRestart MySQL Database Server In Linux (Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS)
The systemctl command can be used to restart the MySQL database service. The restart first stops the service and then starts it with a single command. The systemctl restart command can be used to restart the MySQL database service. The MySQL database service is named as mysqld which is the short form of “MySQL Daemon”. As restarting a service is an administrative task it requires administrative privileges which can be provided as root or running with sudo command like below.
$ sudo systemctl restart mysqldThe sudo command may requires the password for the current user with the following prompt.
[sudo] password for ismail:
After the restart, the status of the MySQL database service status can be checked if it is started properly.
Check Status of MySQL Database Server In Windows
The status of the MySQL database service can be check-in Windows by using the Services. The Services configuration can be opened via the Windows Run. First, we open the Windows Run with the WIN+R keyboard shortcuts. Then put services.msc command into Windows Run and execute it.
services.msc
In the Services navigate to the MySQL service which is like below. The status of the service is listed as Running .
Restart MySQL Database Server In Windows
The MySQL database service can be restarted in different ways from command line interface or Services configuration. First the MS-DOS command line interface can be used to restart MySQL database service in Windows.
"C:Program FilesMySQLMySQL Server 8.0binmysqladmin" -u root shutdown
"C:Program FilesMySQLMySQL Server 8.0binmysqld"Alternative way is using the Services which is the official service mangement method for Windows operating systems. First we open the services screen via Windows Run by executing the services.msc like below.
In the Services configuration screen navigate to the MySQL service and select it. The Restart button or text can be used to restart MySQL service like below.
Check Status of MySQL Database Server In MacOSX
The MySQL database service or server status can be checked in MacOSX operating systems similar to the Linux operating system. If the installed version of the MySQL database server is older than 5.7 the following instructions can be used to check MySQL service status via the command-line interface.
$ sudo /usr/local/mysql/support-files/mysql.server statusIf the installed MySQL database service version is higher then 5.7 the following commands can be used to check status.
sudo launchctl status -F /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.oracle.oss.mysql.mysqld.plistThe MySQL database service can be restarted using the following commands in MacOSX operating system.
sudo /usr/local/mysql/support-files/mysql.server restart
