[GNC] Saving to MySQL 8.0.36

[Kalpesh Patel]

Wild guess but could it be your MAC's and/or Windows host firewall settings?

Sinwows? Wow, you really hate Windoz$ that much but yet run MySQL on it
which was born on Linux...

Subject: [GNC] Saving to MySQL 8.0.36

I am trying to save my Gbucash data to MySQl v8.0.36 on a newly installed
MySQL instance on WIndwos 10. Gnucash is running on a Mac and I also have a
MySQL instance on that machine running v .8.0.22. I have no problem saving
the gnucash data to the local MySQL instance but when I try to save it to
the WIndows instance, I get a non-specific error. My MySQL client can login
from the Mac to the Sinwows instance without problem so I know that I have
both connectivity and the correct userid/passwd. 
Can anyone please help me to diagnose why gnucash will not save to the
Windows instance. I also tried creating a user entry for the same userid but
specifying the Mac ip and Standard authentication. This also failed to work.
What am I missing?
