You can use the mysqladmin to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mysqltutorial.org\/mysql-basics\/mysql-create-database\/\">create a new database<\/a> in a MySQL server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s the basic syntax for creating a new database using the mysqladmin:<\/p>\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\" aria-describedby=\"shcb-language-1\" data-shcb-language-name=\"CSS\" data-shcb-language-slug=\"css\"><span><code class=\"hljs language-css\"><span class=\"hljs-selector-tag\">mysqladmin<\/span> <span class=\"hljs-selector-attr\">&#91;options]<\/span> <span class=\"hljs-selector-tag\">create<\/span> <span class=\"hljs-selector-tag\">db_name<\/span>;<\/code><\/span><small class=\"shcb-language\" id=\"shcb-language-1\"><span class=\"shcb-language__label\">Code language:<\/span> <span class=\"shcb-language__name\">CSS<\/span> <span class=\"shcb-language__paren\">(<\/span><span class=\"shcb-language__slug\">css<\/span><span class=\"shcb-language__paren\">)<\/span><\/small><\/pre>\n\n\n<p>In this syntax:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><code>mysqladmin<\/code>: invoke the mysqladmin program.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><code>[options]<\/code>: specify the connection details to a MySQL server including hostname, username, and password.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><code>create<\/code>: instruct mysqladmin to create a new database.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><code>db_name<\/code>: specify the name of the database that you want to create.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;ll show you how to create a test database on the local MySQL server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, open the Command Prompt on Windows or Terminal on Unix-like systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Second, create the <code>test<\/code> database using the mysqladmin client tool:<\/p>\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><span><code class=\"hljs\">mysqladmin -u root -p create test;<\/code><\/span><\/pre>\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;ll prompt you to enter a password for the root user account. After entering the valid password, it&#8217;ll create a database called <code>test<\/code>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Behind the scenes, the mysqladmin uses the <code>CREATE DATABASE<\/code> statement to create a new database. If the test database already exists, it&#8217;ll display an error message:<\/p>\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\" aria-describedby=\"shcb-language-2\" data-shcb-language-name=\"JavaScript\"

you can create a database using the following command without providing the connection details:<\/p>\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><span><code class=\"hljs\">mysqladmin create sampledb;<\/code><\/span><\/pre>\n\n\n<p>Notice that you should not use the password directly after the &#8211;password option, because it is not secure.<\/p>\n\n\n<pre
