Small Edits.
  • For Debian, Manjaro, Arch-Linux (those distributions which doesn’t have `servive`)
  • ```
  • sudo systemctl enable mysql
  • ```
  • You can use start instead of enable.
  • Note : Some distros don't have mysql. They have mysqld (Arch-based Linux maybe).
  • <hr/>
  • You can use mysql-server following way also.
  • ```
  • mysql -u root -p
  • ```
  • If there's no password than, you can remove `-p`(you can leave password field empty also). `root` is username.
