[mysql-async] [ERROR] ER_NOT_SUPPORTED_AUTH_MODE: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client`
Describe the bug I'm getting this when trying to connect to mysql-async:
[mysql-async] [ERROR] ER_NOT_SUPPORTED_AUTH_MODE: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client
To Reproduce I'm using this in server.cfg:
set mysql_connection_string "server=localhost;database=portugalrpdb;userid=root;password=passpass"
start mysql-async
I'm using MySQL Workbench, instead of XAMPP, because that's what I'm more used to, but I'm still a beginner. Expected behavior To connect to MySQL server. I don't know. I'm stil learning.
Screenshots / Logs

Software:
- OS: Windows 10
- Version of the resource: I downloaded it just today so I assume it's the latest recommended.
- Database Version: I don't know, but I downloaded it from MySQL website.
Additional Information I'm not using ESX.
Fix: I was with MySQL 8.0, I uninstalled it and installed MariaDB and it's now working.
Yea depending on updates they release things like database sql software needs updating so you work with a lower version now it will run super slow at loading stuff
