查看MySQL的版本，主要有以下几个方法：
1. 没有连接到MySQL服务器，就想查看MySQL的版本。打开cmd，切换至mysql的bin目录，运行下面的命令即可： e:\mysql\bin> mysql -V mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.6.32, for Win32 (AMD64) （版本为 5.6.32） 或者： e:\mysql\bin> mysql -v 这个命令可以查看到更为详细的信息，因为它会用账号 ODBC，连接上MySQL服务器，默认连接到localhost上的3306端口。 或者： e:\mysql\bin> mysql --help | find "Distrib" mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.6.32, for Win32 (AMD64) 这种方式只有windows系统下才可用，因为windows中才用find命令查找字符串，且后面的字符串必须用双引号包裹起来，而linux系统下虽然也是用 | 作为管道符，却是使用grep命令查找字符串（如： mysql --help | grep Distrib）。 2. 如果已经连接到了MySQL服务器，则运行下面的命令： mysql> select version(); +------------+ | version() | +------------+ | 5.6.32-log | +------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) 或者： mysql> status; -------------- mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.6.32, for Win32 (AMD64) Connection id: 9 Current database: Current user: root@localhost SSL: Not in use Using delimiter: ; Server version: 5.6.32-log MySQL Community Server (GPL) Protocol version: 10 Connection: localhost via TCP/IP Server characterset: latin1 Db characterset: latin1 Client characterset: gbk Conn. characterset: gbk TCP port: 3307 Uptime: 4 hours 7 min 11 sec Threads: 4 Questions: 126 Slow queries: 0 Opens: 73 Flush tables: 1 Open tables: 66 Queries per second avg: 0.008 或者： mysql> \s -------------- mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.6.32, for Win32 (AMD64) Connection id: 9 Current database: Current user: root@localhost SSL: Not in use Using delimiter: ; Server version: 5.6.32-log MySQL Community Server (GPL) Protocol version: 10 Connection: localhost via TCP/IP Server characterset: latin1 Db characterset: latin1 Client characterset: gbk Conn. characterset: gbk TCP port: 3307 Uptime: 4 hours 9 min 29 sec Threads: 4 Questions: 144 Slow queries: 0 Opens: 73 Flush tables: 1 Open tables: 66 Queries per second avg: 0.009 3. 在命令行连接上MySQL服务器时，其实就已经显示了MySQL的版本，如： e:\mysql\bin> mysql -uroot -p -P3307 Enter password: Welcome to the MySQL monitor.
