ER_NOT_SUPPORTED_AUTH_MODE: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client

[CantHackTheHack]

Error started happening after upgrading to: 5.7.11 MySQL Community Server (GPL) on Oracle Linux . Any thoughts how to fix this?

As a side note.. the nodejs mysql module works fine. Its just the Caminte MySQL connection is failing.
