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

[OysteinAmundsen]

Using:

• docker hub mysql latest: v8.0.11
• Latest Mysql client from npm: v2.15.0
• Node 8.11.1
• Connecting through TypeORM: v0.2.5

I'm getting this error, but I have done nothing to tweak the defaults anywhere.

Error:

Error during schema synchronization:

I tried switching to insecureAuth : true as suggested by https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44946270/er-not-supported-auth-mode-mysql-server, but this gave me the same error.

I looked at #1574 , but the solution here returns:
ERROR 1396 (HY000): Operation ALTER USER failed for 'system'@'localhost' .

Not sure if #1507 applies here, as I do not think I'm using auth_socket.

Perhaps #2001 is related, but this does not provide any solutions.

I tried to downgrade Typeorm, as this error first surfaced after a typeorm upgrade, but nothing changed. Same error. My only suspect now, is the docker image for mysql perhaps changed at the same time, giving me an upgraded mysql version.

What can I do?

You are using MySql 8 which the default auth is not yet supported. We're working to get it added currently. Duplicate of #2002
