[GNC] MySQL back-end access failed @ MACOS 12 after MySQL server upgrade to 8.0.28

[Neko Chang]

Thank you for the clarification.

Hi Adrien
I am using MySQL @ FreeBSD remote mainly,
MySQL @ MACOS for the issue tested.
GNUCASH @ MACOS work fine both MySQL v8.0.23.

Hi Josh
Either MySQL v8.0.23 or v8.0.28, all parameter
same(user/password/database name).
Therefore issue caused from libdbi I guess.

The issue would not be resolve.
I forgot GNUCASH @ MACOS, using GNUCASH @ Ubuntu continue.

Regards
Neko

The GnuCash team most emphatically are not and cannot provide any support for database server problems. If you are not a MySQL expert then you should use the SQLite3 or XML backends which don't require DB Admin skills.
