1). End current mysql process
2). Run MySQL safe daemon with skipping grant tables
mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables &
3). Login to MySQL as root with no password:
mysql -u root mysql
4). Run UPDATE query to reset the root password. In MySQL command line prompt issue the following two commands:
UPDATE user SET password=PASSWORD("NEWPASSWD") WHERE user="root";
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
