I'm attempting to connect an old .net framework 4.5 project to my local mysql version 8+ for testing. But I get the following error:
'Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client'
Through some search I found the old authentication method isn't standard in newer versions of mysql, so I tried to change my chosen user:
ALTER USER 'user'#'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'password';
flush PRIVILEGES;
This seemingly solved the authentication, but have introduced a connection error, which I can't figure out:
'A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond'

I'm having an issue connecting to the SQL database using the program Keira3 (version 3.0.2).
Error: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by
server; consider upgrading MySQL client
Code: ER_NOT_SUPPORTED_AUTH_MODE Errno: 1251 SQL State: 08004
Unfortunately the mysql library used by Keira3 does not support the new Mysql 8.0 authentication protocol, to change it you can run:
ALTER USER 'root'#'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'password';
There is an open issue for this problem.
I am getting an error in Toad Edge 2.1.5 for the MySQL database.
For one of the databases, the same JDBC is working for another database with the same version of MySQL 8. it is giving the above error.
Kindly help me to rectify the error.
I'm using MySQL 8 Server in same machine.
I had the same problem and it worked connecting with root user. Make sure you are connecting with the same user than in the other successful connection.
In case you are trying with the same user, type this on your MySQL server console:
ALTER USER 'youruser'#'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'yourpassword';
It's necessary for authenticating in MySQL 8.
I have a tomcat 8 webserver and try to connect local mysql 5.7, but having following error:
Caused by:
SQLNestedException: Cannot create PoolableConnectionFactory (Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server
I googled and people suggested to update the password and I did as well, however doesn't work for me.
What I did
ALTER USER 'root'#'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'password'
flush privileges;
Currently I can only use public ip address to connect back to the local database....
MYSQL changed the password storage method starting with version 4.1. If your client is trying to connect with the old way and the server has the password stored in the new way, then you will get that error message. In order to fix that, you have 2 choices:
check the settings on your tomcat server
change the password hash in the mysql server, to be compatible with versions pre-4.1
If you want to change the password to use the old hashing type, use a command like:
mysql> SET PASSWORD FOR
-> 'some_user'#'some_host' = OLD_PASSWORD('new_password');
After that you have to start your mysql server with old_passwords system variable set to 1
On the other hand, I think that the best way of resolving this will be to set the client to use the proper way of connecting to the mysql server.
If you use PHP for connecting to the server, check if you use mysql of mysqli library. I think that only mysqli library uses the new way of managing connections.
I was trying to reinstall MySQL server 8.0 in order to use legacy authentication method, but got the following error in log when installer was attempting to start the server:
MySQL error 0: Authentication to host 'localhost' for user 'root'
using method 'mysql_native_password' failed with message: Plugin
'Standard' is not loaded
How can i fix it?
caching_sha2_password is the default authentication mechanism in 8.0. So use a client that support this. Or using the mysql-8.0 client, create a new user using CREATE USER:
CREATE USER 'vyacheslav'#'localhost'
IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'password';
I'm new to MySql environment and installed :
MySQL with the following commands:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mysql-server
mysql_secure_installation
and also installed mysql workbench.
But when I'm trying to connect my localhost getting the follow error:
"Authentication plugin 'caching_sha2_password' cannot be loaded: /usr/lib/mysql/plugin/caching_sha2_password.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
and even this is the first time I'm posting a question in stackoverflow, sorry for my presentation errors and syntax.
So I found the reason for that error message (at least for my case).
It's because MySQL as of version 8.04 and onwards uses caching_sha2_password as default authentication plugin where previously mysql_native_password has been used.
This obviously causes compatibility issues with older services that expect mysql_native_password authentication.
Solutions:
Check for an updated version of the client service you are
using (most recent workbench for instance).
Downgrade the MySQL Server to a version below that change.
Change the authentication plugin on a per user basis (I didn't find a global option, maybe there exists one though).
Now regarding option 3 this is as simple as altering the user:
ALTER USER user
IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password
BY 'pw';
or when creating the user:
CREATE USER 'username'#'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'password';
See MySQL Server Blog
See Oracle
Some more details coming here:
That caching_sha2_password plugin is the new default authentication plugin on MySQL 8 server. Only the libmysql library from that MySQL 8 distribution owns this plugin, and it is built statically into libmysql - the C-connector for various clients. That caching_sha2_password is not available separately for downloading.
This is the very first time that libmysql has an important plugin statically included. And this causes any other libmysql (including libmariadb and also older libmysql's) not to connect to MySQL 8 with a user which is defined to use that caching_sha2_password authentication.
I just hope that the guys from MariaDB are so nice to also include that caching_sha2_password in their libmariadb, to restore the drop-in-compatibility between MySQL and MariaDB.
From MySQL's server blog:
Support for caching_sha2_password was added in MySQL 8.0.3. Older
versions of libmysqlclient do not support this plugin. So, although
client tools that use libmysqlclient older than one available with
MySQL 8.0.3 can connect to MySQL 8.0.4 server using users that use
other authentication plugins such as mysql_native_password or
sha256_password, such client cannot connect to MySQL 8.0.4 server
using users which require caching_sha2_password support. For an
upgraded database, it means connecting using an existing user account
should not face any issues.
In the my.cnf file add the following line:
default-authentication-plugin=mysql_native_password
then restart the server.
The latest MYSQL versions have 'caching_sha2_password' as the default authentication type. Which does not allow remote connections to MYSQL and results in caching_sha2_password plugin error.
I have fixed it using
ALTER USER 'yourusername'#'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'yourpassword';
Now it allows your user to access MySQL from localhost.
If you want to access MySQL from multiple remote hosts then do the following,
**
ALTER USER 'yourusername'#'%' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY
'youpassword';
**
After every alter command in SQL run the following to take effect.
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
OR restart MySQL server
Login to Mysql or your workbench, and run the following statement for any user who has this issue:
alter USER 'YOURUSERFORMYSQL'#'localhost' identified with mysql_native_password by 'YOURPASSWORD'
In case you did not create the user yet, you can activate this feature during the user creation.
create USER 'NEWUSER'#'localhost' identified with mysql_native_password by 'NEWPASSWORD'
