The error message indicates that the authentication plugin 'caching_sha2_password' cannot be loaded because the required shared object file is missing. To resolve this, you can change the authentication plugin for the user to one that is available. Using the command 'ALTER USER user IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'password';' will change the authentication method to 'mysql_native_password', which is a commonly supported and available plugin, allowing the client to connect to the MySQL Server.
A. F is kinda valid, but it doesn't to current accounts, which is this one.
Sorry meant B. you have to use mysql native passwords. F only applies to new accounts.
