This came up on IRC last Thursday: 
https://code.gnucash.org/logs/2020/10/01.html#T17:45:55

The problem seems to be that MySQL 8 has implmented a new authentication scheme 
with SHA2. GnuCash on Windows uses MariaDB instead of MySQL because MySQL also 
dropped their C-based client in favor of a C++ one and the C++ one doesn't 
integrate with libdbi. MariaDB doesn't implement the SHA2 based authentication. 
The answer to 
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51567604/rmariadb-caching-sha2-password-error-when-connecting-to-mysql
 offers a workaround.

John Ralls
