After installing navicat New Connection error occurred 2059
After online, we found the cause of errors in previous versions of mysql8 encryption rules mysql_native_password, and later in mysql8 encryption rules caching_sha2_password.
There are two ways to solve this problem, one is navicat updated driver to resolve this problem, one is to modify the encryption rule mysql user login is mysql_native_password. ; According to most online recommended a second way:
1. Open the window win + d input doc open cmd
Enter mysql sever installation bin directory input
mysql -u root -p
Enter the root password
2. Select the database

Refresh
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
5. Check again encryption
select Host,User,plugin from mysql.user;
