I have installed ubuntu 18.04 LTS and installed mysql server. But it does not allow me to logging as root.

I have tried {mysql -u root}

but it gives

ERROR 1698 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'

can someone help me to resolve this.

    There should be a temporary password created for the initial root login. It may be in /var/log/mysqld.log – J2112O Oct 16 '19 at 14:07
