[FIXED] Spring boot CLIENT_PLUGIN_AUTH is required

Issue

I have my app working fine on local, but when I tried to connect to remote server I get this error: CLIENT_PLUGIN_AUTH is required.

server.port=8081
spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=none
#local
#spring.datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/dbtest
#spring.datasource.username=user
#spring.datasource.password=password
#remote
spring.datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://userssh:[email protected]:3306/dbtest
spring.datasource.username=userRemote
spring.datasource.password=passRemote

spring.datasource.driver-class-name=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

Solution

I got it.

Step 1. Create an user on remote mysql server and grant all privileges.

Step 2. Change datasource url

spring.datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:3306/dbtest

Step 3. Change pom.xml mysql

<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/mysql/mysql-connector-java -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>mysql</groupId>
    <artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
    <version>5.1.6</version>
</dependency>

Check that version is changed to <version>5.1.6</version> from <scope>runtime</scope>
