2.5.2

Description

Upgrading to MySQL 8.4 I get this error every time I try to create a new database or user of a database.

An error has occurred, error message: An exception occurred while executing a query: SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1524 Plugin 'mysql_native_password' is not loaded

How to reproduce

With a MySQL 8.4 database in use, add a user to an existing database or add a new database with Cloudpanel interface.

Possible Solution

Cloudpanel should create new users with caching_sha2_password instead of the deprecated mysql_native_password.

Additional Context

No response
