I have tried many times unsuccessfully to get Kodi to work with MySQL 8, and this last weekend I gave it another go. I finally have things working but my question is, does Kodi support the caching sha2 password feature of MySQL 8? and if so how do you make it work. After many hours of frustration and trying to figure out why I could get other programs to connect to the database using the same credentials Kodi would not. When I finally tried creating a new user with standard password authentication everything works fine. I would like to use the caching sha2 passwords if that's an option though.
Thanks for any insight
