Answer 1

I forgot to update the user after generating and copying the password and was wondering why it wasn't working. I saw the update button later. I was not visible to me earlier. lol. Solved the problem.

Database Access => edit user => generate/copy password => update it! It worked for me.

remember to make sure you have updated it.
